Understanding the influence of hydrogen on BCC iron grain boundaries using the kinetic activation relaxation technique (k-ART) by Aynour Khosravi, Jun Song, Normand Mousseau

“…The results further indicate that the $\Sigma 3$ GB exhibits higher stability in its pure form compared to the $\Sigma 37$ GB, with notable differences in energy barriers and diffusion behaviors. Moreover, with detailed information about the evolution landscape around the GB, we find that the saturation of a GB with hydrogen both stabilizes the GB by shifting barriers associated with Fe diffusion to higher energies and reducing the number of diffusion events. …”
