Abstract:Nanocrystalline metals are important because they exhibit exceptionally high strengths and therefore have generated considerable interest [1,2]. Nanocrystalline copper samples were made by inert gas condensation (IGC) and in situ compaction in equipment at Argonne National Laboratory. They were made from 99.999% pure Cu stock. The average grain size of each sample was determined from transmission electron microscopy observations of ~ 500 grains. The grain size distribution was quite narrow. The samples had a d… Show more
