Zener relaxation is a phenomenon discovered by Clarence Zener in 1943 where he observed an internal friction peak in an α-brass crystal near 400°C at a frequency of 620Hz. This peak, known as the Zener peak, is caused by the reorientation of solute atom pairs in the lattice under an applied stress as the solute atoms are mobile within that temperature range. Zener proposed the "pair-reorientation" model in 1947 to explain this phenomenon, where stress causes solute atom pairs to reorient. The characteristics of the Zener peak, including relaxation strength and relaxation time, depend on factors like solute concentration, temperature, and crystal structure. Zener relaxation has been useful for studying
