Abstract
High-Resolution Neutron Diffraction (HRND), Electron Back-Scatter Diffraction (EBSD) and Scanning Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy (SKPFM) techniques were used to comparatively characterize the surface electrical properties of Inconel 690 and stainless steel 316L alloys in cold-rolled and unrolled (annealed) conditions. Results indicated that a direct relation exists between the density of lattice defects (measured by HRND and EBSD) and heterogeneity of surface potential (measured by SKPFM). Mapping of the Volta potential and deconvolution of the corresponding histogram plots of the acquired data were utilized to visualize and comparatively quantify crystal lattice defects and estimate the surface susceptibility to the formation of micro/nano-galvanic cells. SKPFM was found as a reliable alternative to electron and neutron scattering techniques for comparative evaluation of energy states on alloys’ surfaces.
期刊介绍:
Progress in Surface Science publishes progress reports and review articles by invited authors of international stature. The papers are aimed at surface scientists and cover various aspects of surface science. Papers in the new section Progress Highlights, are more concise and general at the same time, and are aimed at all scientists. Because of the transdisciplinary nature of surface science, topics are chosen for their timeliness from across the wide spectrum of scientific and engineering subjects. The journal strives to promote the exchange of ideas between surface scientists in the various areas. Authors are encouraged to write articles that are of relevance and interest to both established surface scientists and newcomers in the field.
