Grain boundaries (GBs) are thermodynamically susceptible to attract solutes to reduce system energy. Elaborately manipulating the GB nanostructure and chemistry via segregation can essentially be conducive, rather than detrimental, to materials performance. However, the underlying mechanism of GB segregation and its detailed effect on material properties remain elusive due to the GB complexities in the polycrystals. Through correlative in-situ nanomechanical testing and atom probe tomography, this project aims to unravel the rationale of segregation behaviour of individual GBs and its effectiveness to enhance the material performance, and hence enable nanostructural design of advanced metallic materials with unprecedented properties.

晶界（GBS）在热力学上易于吸引溶质以减少系统能量。通过隔离来精心操纵GB纳米结构和化学基本上可以有利于材料性能而不是有害的。但是，由于多晶的GB复杂性，GB分离的潜在机制及其对材料特性的详细影响仍然难以捉摸。通过相关的原位纳米力学测试和原子探针断层扫描，该项目旨在揭示单个GB的隔离行为的基本原理及其有效性，以增强材料性能，从而促进具有前所未有的特性的高级金属材料的纳米结构设计。
