We demonstrate using theoretical, computational, and experimental studies a morphological instability, in which a polycrystalline nanorod breaks up at grain boundaries (GBs) into an array of isolated domains. Our theoretical model is used to establish a neutral stability surface demarcating stable and unstable perturbations. It is shown that GBs play a destabilizing role in which the critical wavelength for the instability decreases with the increase in the GB energy. We carry out phase field simulations, which reveal accelerated pinch-off kinetics with the increase in the GB energy and predict temporal evolution of interfacial profiles in quantitative agreement with experimental observations.
