Outline of Final Research Achievements

Size dependence of solid-liquid interfacial energy of Fe was investigated by using molecular dynamics calculation. As a result, it is found that the trend of the decrease in interfacial energy can be explained by Tolman equation. In addition, the fluctuation was examined by molecular dynamics calculation. When the undercooling is sufficiently large to make nucleation interval short enough to finish calculation in a practical time, the liquid phase cannot be frozen but becomes icosahedral. In introduction fluctuation into phase-field modeling, phenomenological modeling was adopted. The result shows that pairs of variants which is stable in terms of elastic strain energy was nucleated. Although the fluctuation need to be large to make nucleation happen in practical calculation time, the nucleation interval follows classical nucleation theory.
