Binary Crystals and Kinetic Traps

During an invited talk at the University of Bath on May 3rd 2017, I have had the chance to discuss the work that we have done in Bristol on binary crystals and binary mixtures.

The story, that you can find in the following slides, discusses experimental and numerical aspects in the formation and dissolution of binary crystals:

  • The routes to the formation interstitial solid solution (work with I. Rios de Anda).
  • The role of compositional frustration (work with P. Crowther), published here.
  • The emergence of dynamical transition under mechanical deformation of the crystals (work with E. Brillaux).
