Temperature and strain-rate dependence of surface dislocation nucleation.
Dislocation nucleation is essential to the plastic deformation of small-volume crystalline solids. The free surface may act as an effective source of dislocations to initiate and sustain plastic flow, in conjunction with bulk sources. Here, we develop an atomistic modeling framework to address the probabilistic nature of surface dislocation nucleation. We show the activation volume associated w...
متن کاملMeasuring surface dislocation nucleation in defect-scarce nanostructures.
Linear defects in crystalline materials, known as dislocations, are central to the understanding of plastic deformation and mechanical strength, as well as control of performance in a variety of electronic and photonic materials. Despite nearly a century of research on dislocation structure and interactions, measurements of the energetics and kinetics of dislocation nucleation have not been pos...
متن کاملEmergence of strain-rate sensitivity in Cu nanopillars: Transition from dislocation multiplication to dislocation nucleation
We demonstrate strain-rate sensitivity emerging in single-crystalline Cu nanopillars with diameters ranging from 75 up to 500 nm through uniaxial deformation experiments performed at different constant strain rates. In the range of pillar diameters and strain rates tested, we find that the size dependence of the pillar strength deviates from the ubiquitously observed power law to a relatively s...
متن کاملOn the nonlocal nature of dislocation nucleation during nanoindentation
Using static atomistic simulations, we study the full details of the mechanism by which dislocations homogeneously nucleate beneath the surface of a initially defect-free crystal during indentation. The mechanism involves the collective motion of a finite disk of atoms over two adjacent slip planes, the diameter of which depends on the indenter size. The nucleation mechanism highlights the need...
متن کاملTowards a Universal Size-Dependent Strength of FCC Nanoparticles
:האצרהה ריצקת להל Understanding dislocation nucleation is essential to control plasticity of defect-free specimen. Free surfaces in metallic materials become increasingly important as the dimensions are minimized into the sub-micrometer scale. In result, there is an inverse relation between their strength and the characteristic microstructural length scale. In this talk, we present an atomisti...
