    In Situ High-Cycle Fatigue Reveals Importance of Grain Boundary Structure in Nanocrystalline Cu-Zr

    Nanocrystalline metals typically have high fatigue strengths but low resistance to crack propagation. Amorphous intergranular films are disordered grain boundary complexions that have been shown to delay crac...
