    1. Description of polycrystalline material structures

    1.1 Structure of technological materials

    The properties of crystallized technological materials depend on four categories of structural parameters (figure 1 ):

    • crystal structure: the arrangement of atoms in the crystal lattice ;

    • phase structure: the composition and arrangement of phases according to size and shape;

    • grain structure: the orientation and arrangement of crystallites according to size and shape;

    • substructure: lattice defects and their distribution within the grains.
