## Abstract

We studied tracer self-diffusion in ultrafine grained Ni prepared by high pressure torsion. Two Ni materials of low (99.6 wt. %) and high (99.99 wt. %) purity levels were investigated. While the ultrafine grained structure of less pure Ni remained stable during diffusion annealing, recrystallization and subsequent grain growth occurred in high purity Ni at the same annealing conditions. Nevertheless, qualitatively similar ultrafast diffusion rates were measured in the samples of both purity levels. In high purity Ni, the kinetics of recrystallization was found to deviate strongly from the predictions of the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami-Kolmogorov theory. Moreover, the ultrafast diffusion paths withstood the recrystallization process. A model which accounts for solute redistribution in front of the moving boundary is suggested. Retaining of deformation-induced ultrafast diffusion paths in recrystallized Ni is explained by a specific mechanism of enhanced stability of the residual ultrafine grained fraction against recrystallization.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
