本文简要介绍了结构和功能多晶材料晶界工程的历史背景。需要强调的是，在过去的一个世纪里，许多研究人员广泛积累了有关晶界和界面的结构和性质的基础知识。讨论了一种关于晶界和界面工程概念的新方法，用于设计和开发具有理想整体性能的高性能材料。基于这些概念的最新进展清楚地证明了晶界工程对于各种结构和功能材料的巨大潜力和普遍适用性。已经概述了晶界和界面工程的未来前景，希望能够出现一个新的维度，涉及新材料的发现和源自先进多晶材料中晶界和界面的存在的新特性的产生。
A brief introduction of the historical background of grain boundary engineering for structural and functional polycrystalline materials is presented herewith. It has been emphasized that the accumulation of fundamental knowledge about the structure and properties of grain boundaries and interfaces has been extensively done by many researchers during the past one century. A new approach in terms of the concept of grain boundary and interface engineering is discussed for the design and development of high performance materials with desirable bulk properties. Recent advancements based on these concepts clearly demonstrate the high potential and general applicability of grain boundary engineering for various kinds of structural and functional materials. Future prospects of the grain boundary and interface engineering have been outlined, hoping that a new dimension will emerge pertaining to the discovery of new materials and the generation of a new property originating from the presence of grain boundaries and interfaces in advanced polycrystalline materials.
