A MICROSCOPIC THEORY FOR DOMAIN WALL MOTION AND ITS EXPERIMENTAL VERIFICATION IN Fe-Al ALLOY DOMAIN GROWTH KINETICS
Abstract
A microscopic theory for curved antiphase domain wall motion in ordered structures leads to a prediction that velocity is proportional to mean curvature. Unlike previous models, the velocity is not proportional to domain wall free energy. Experimental results on domain growth in ordered FeAl alloys over a range of temperatures, times and compositions, are consistent with the theory. In the vicinity of the critical temperature where domain wall free energy tends to zero, domain growth is not slowed.
