High-resolution in situ annealing studies of sub-micron grain structures

拟议的研究是申请人之间正在进行的大量合作的延伸，并将利用先进的表征技术来提供比目前对含颗粒纳米晶合金的热稳定性更基本的理解。该项目将加强我们研究小组之间的密切合作，并将使澳大利亚研究人员接触尖端的研究技术，特别强调扩大早期职业研究人员的培训经验。 几个联合期刊论文预计从这项工作。

The proposed research is an extension of considerable ongoing collaboration between the applicants and will utilise advanced characterisation techniques to provide a more fundamental understanding than that presently available of the thermal stability of particle-containing nanocrystalline alloys. The project will reinforce the strong collaboration between our research groups and will expose Australian researchers to cutting-edge research techniques, with particular emphasis on broadening the training experience of early career researchers. Several joint journal papers are expected from this work.
