Vacancies form during solidification, and as a result of atomic vibrations. Equilibrium number of vacancies increases exponentially with temperature. Self interstitial is atom crowded into interstitial void . In metals this induces large distortions due to high packing factors, and is not highly probable (will exist in low concentrations). - Impurities always exist - Alloys have higher "impurities" -Solvent is host element, solute is element in minor concentration. - Solid solution if random, uniform dispersal of impurities. - Substitution if radii within ~15% (brass is copper .128nm and zinc .133nm -- up to 35% zinc soluble) - Interstitial atoms must be much smaller than host atoms (carbon .071nm is interstitial when added to iron .124nm, with max. concentration ~2%).

Iron-Carbon System
Steel is not a widely used aerospace material, but if you can understand the iron-carbon system you can apply this to aerospace alloys Well spend significant amount of time on iron-carbon, and you should be able to identify the various phases - Examples, Unit cell structures

Eutectoid Composition
Single solid ==> Two other solids (e.g. Austenite ==> Ferrite + Cementite)
Diffusion
Material transport by atomic movement Diffusion Couple - Two bars of different material brought into contact - Couple heated for extended period at elevated temperature (below melting point of either) - Couple cooled to room temperature - Alloy region will exist in location of couple, where atoms have diffused into one another

Diffusion Mechanisms
Vacancy diffusion: interchange of atom in lattice position and vacancy
Interstitial diffusion: Migration of atom from one interstital position to neighboring empty interstitial position
