“…Several monolayer (ML) thick liquid-like GB layers possessing high diffusivity were observed in the Cu-Bi [28][29][30][31], Al-Zn [26,27], Fe-Si-Zn [32][33][34][35] and W-Ni alloys [36,37]. GB liquid-like phase drastically influences also the GB segregation [29], GB mobility [38], GB energy and electrical resistivity [39,40]. The direct HREM evidence for thin GB films and triple junction ''pockets'' has been recently obtained in metallic W-Ni [36,37] and Al-Zn [26] alloys.…”
