Grain boundary triple junctions are defects in their own right with specific thermodynamic and kinetic properties. The line tension of a grain boundary triple junction will cause impurity segregation, which, in turn, affects the triple line energy and gives rise to a drag effect of solute atoms on grain boundary motion. This can strongly impact microstructural development, in particular of fine grained and nanocrystalline materials. We measured the line tension of grain boundary triple junctions which comprised the intersection of three random high angle boundaries in a Cu-Ni alloy (Ni content about 2.2%) to be 7.8× 10− 9 J/m. This energy is slightly higher than the line tension of a comparable triple line in pure Cu.
