"Single grain boundary" refers to an interface between two grains, or crystallites, in a polycrystalline material. Grain boundaries are 2D defects in the crystal structure and tend to decrease the electrical and thermal conductivity of the material. (Search "grain boundary" on Wikipedia.com Nov. 30. 2019.
