Abstract

Lattice parameters for nanocrystalline (nc) materials were found to be alerted with respect to the corresponding coarse-grained polycrystalline counterparts in several systems. In this work, experimental evidences of the lattice structure distortion in various nc materials processed by means of different approaches will be summarized and discussed. Strong evidences showed the lattice structure distortion in nc samples which is manifested by an evident change in the lattice parameters, Debye-Waller parameter, and the thermal properties of the nanocrystalline lattice. These results imply that the property changes of nc materials should be attributed not only to the numerous non-equilibrium grain boundaries, but to the distorted nanocrystallites as well.
