Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Dislocation Activity in Single-Crystal and Nanocrystalline Copper Doped with Antimony RAHUL K. RAJGARHIA, DOUGLAS E. SPEAROT, and ASHOK SAXENA Recent experimental and simulation results have indicated that high-temperature grain growth in nanocrystalline (NC) materials can be suppressed by introducing dopant atoms at the grain boundaries. However, the influence of grain boundary dopants on the mechanical behavior of stabilized NC materials is less clear. In this work, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used to study the impact of very low dopant concentrations (
