Tailoring the Plasticity of Topologically Close‐packed Phases via the Crystals’ Fundamental Building Blocks

Résumé

Brittle topologically close-packed precipitates form in many advanced alloys. Due to their complex structures little is known about their plasticity. Here, we present a strategy to understand and tailor the deformability of these complex phases by considering the Nb-Co μ-phase as an archetypal material. The plasticity of the Nb-Co μ-phase is controlled by the Laves phase building block that forms parts of its unit cell. We find that between the bulk C15-NbCo2 Laves and Nb-Co μ-phase, the interplanar spacing and local stiffness of the Laves phase building block change, leading to a strong reduction in hardness and stiffness, as well as a transition from synchroshear to crystallographic slip. Furthermore, as the composition changes from Nb6Co7 to Nb7Co6, the Co atoms in the triple layer are substituted such that the triple layer of the Laves phase building block becomes a slab of pure Nb, resulting in inhomogeneous changes in elasticity and a transition from crystallographic slip to a glide-and-shuffle mechanism. These findings open opportunities to purposefully tailor the plasticity of these topologically close-packed phases in the bulk by manipulating the interplanar spacing and local shear modulus of the fundamental crystal building blocks at the atomic scale.
