| Abstract Scope |
To meet the needs of advanced technologies, it is imperative to develop faster and more efficient methods for materials discovery. Combinatorial High Throughput (CHT) techniques utilize compositional gradients to quickly identify processing-microstructure-property and enable the exploration of complex relationships. To date, research on nanotwinned (NT) materials has been limited to single and binary systems due to the scarcity of known materials capable of achieving NT microstructures and the high costs of exploring broader compositional ranges. In this work, combinatorial CuNiAl alloys were synthesized via co-sputtering and annealed to investigate NT formation and microstructural evolution across the compositional space. Overall, it was determined that Al content was the primary variable influencing microstructural evolution and demonstrated the ability of a CHT approach to investigate and develop a fundamental understanding of NT behavior in more complex compositional domains. |
