  Title Dislocation-mediated relaxation in nanograined columnar ​palladium films revealed by on-chip time-resolved HRTEM testing Type A1 Journal article
  Year 2015 Publication Nature communications Abbreviated Journal Nat Commun  
  Volume (down) 6 Issue 6 Pages 5922  
  Keywords A1 Journal article; Engineering sciences. Technology; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)  
  Abstract The high-rate sensitivity of nanostructured metallic materials demonstrated in the recent literature is related to the predominance of thermally activated deformation mechanisms favoured by a large density of internal interfaces. Here we report time-resolved high-resolution electron transmission microscopy creep tests on thin nanograined films using on-chip nanomechanical testing. Tests are performed on ​palladium, which exhibited unexpectedly large creep rates at room temperature. Despite the small 30-nm grain size, relaxation is found to be mediated by dislocation mechanisms. The dislocations interact with the growth nanotwins present in the grains, leading to a loss of coherency of twin boundaries. The density of stored dislocations first increases with applied deformation, and then decreases with time to drive additional deformation while no grain boundary mechanism is observed. This fast relaxation constitutes a key issue in the development of various micro- and nanotechnologies such as ​palladium membranes for hydrogen applications.

  Title Novel class of nanostructured metallic glass films with superior and tunable mechanical properties Type A1 Journal article
  Year 2021 Publication Acta Materialia Abbreviated Journal Acta Mater  
  Volume (down) Issue Pages 116955  
  Keywords A1 Journal article; Engineering sciences. Technology; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)  
  Abstract A novel class of nanostructured Zr50Cu50 (%at.) metallic glass films with superior and tunable mechanical

properties is produced by pulsed laser deposition. The process can be controlled to synthetize a wide

range of film microstructures including dense fully amorphous, amorphous embedded with nanocrystals

and amorphous nano-granular. A unique dense self-assembled nano-laminated atomic arrangement

characterized by alternating Cu-rich and Zr/O-rich nanolayers with different local chemical enrichment

and amorphous or amorphous-crystalline composite nanostructure has been discovered, while

significant in-plane clustering is reported for films synthetized at high deposition pressures. This unique

nanoarchitecture is at the basis of superior mechanical properties including large hardness and elastic

modulus up to 10 and 140 GPa, respectively and outstanding total elongation to failure (>9%), leading to

excellent strength/ductility balance, which can be tuned by playing with the film architecture. These

results pave the way to the synthesis of novel class of engineered nanostructured metallic glass films

with high structural performances attractive for a number of applications in microelectronics and

coating industry.

  Title Supporting data for “In situ Quantitative Tensile Tests on Antigorite in a Transmission Electron Microscope” Type Dataset
  Year 2019 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume (down) Issue Pages  
  Keywords Dataset; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)  
  Abstract The determination of the mechanical properties of serpentinites is essential towards the understanding of the mechanics of faulting and subduction. Here, we present the first in situ tensile tests on antigorite in a transmission electron microscope. A push-to-pull deformation device is used to perform quantitative tensile tests, during which force and displacement are measured, while the microstructure is imaged with the microscope. The experiments have been performed at room temperature on beams prepared by focused ion beam. The specimens are not single crystals despite their small sizes. Orientation mapping indicated that some grains were well-oriented for plastic slip. However, no dislocation activity has been observed even though engineering tensile stress went up to 700 MPa. We show also that antigorite does not exhibit an pure elastic-brittle behaviour since, despite the presence of defects, the specimens underwent plastic deformation and did not fail within the elastic regime. Instead, we observe that strain localizes at grain boundaries. All observations concur to show that under our experimental conditions, grain boundary sliding is the dominant deformation mechanism. This study sheds a new light on the mechanical properties of antigorite and calls for further studies on the structure and properties of grain boundaries in antigorite and more generally in phyllosilicates.
