Abstract:We consider the growth and morphological stability of an intermediate phase growing in a binary diffusion couple under electromigration conditions. The growth rate of the intermediate phase depends primarily on the direction of the electromigration current. Current flow that drives the diffusing species enhances growth of the intermediate phase, while current flow in the opposite direction slows growth. The morphological stability of the interfaces between the intermediate phase and the terminal phases depends… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
