Abstract First-principles calculations based on the density functional theory (DFT) and ultra-soft pseudopotential are employed to study the atomic configuration and charge density of impurity P in NiAl Σ5 grain boundary (GB). The negative segregation energy of a P atom proves that a P atom can easily segregate in the NiAl GB. The atomic configuration and formation energy of the P atom in the NiAl GB demonstrate that the P atom tends to occupy an interstitial site or substitute a Al atom depending on the Ni/Al atoms ratio. The P atom is preferable to staying in the Ni-rich environment in the NiAl GB forming P-Ni bonds. Both of the charge density and the deformation charge imply that a P atom is more likely to bond with Ni atoms rather than with Al atoms. The density of states further exhibits the interactions between P atom and Ni atom, and the orbital electrons of P, Ni and Al atoms all contribute to P-Ni bonds in the NiAl GB. It is worth noting that the P-Ni covalent bonds might embrittle the NiAl GB and weakens the plasticity of the NiAl intermetallics.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
