Abstract
The information which can be gained from field-ion micrographs showing grain boundaries is considered critically. An attempt is made to quantify the factors governing the ``ring'' configuration across both low-angle and high-angle grain boundaries. It is shown that spiral configurations can be generated in the absence of grain boundary dislocations. Some potential applications of the grain boundary contrast theory are indicated.This publication has 22 references indexed in Scilit:
