Little evidence exists on the interaction of individual dislocations with recrystallized grain boundaries, primarily because of the severely overlapping contrast of the high dislocation density usually present during recrystallization. Interesting evidence of such interaction, Fig. 1, was discovered during examination of some old work on the hot deformation of Al-4.64 Cu. The specimen was deformed in a programmable thermomechanical instrument at 527 C and a strain rate of 25 cm/cm/s to a strain of 0.7. Static recrystallization occurred during a post anneal of 23 s also at 527 C. The figure shows evidence of dissociation of a subboundary at an intersection with a recrystallized high-angle grain boundary. At least one set of dislocations appears to be out of contrast in Fig. 1, and a grainboundary precipitate also is visible. Unfortunately, only subgrain sizes were of interest at the time the micrograph was recorded, and no attempt was made to analyze the dislocation structure.

AbstractDeformation experiments at temperatures between 300 and 750 K have been performed in situ in the transmission electron microscope to investigate dislocation interactions and reactions with grain boundaries and other obstacles. Dislocations, both partial and perfect, as well as deformation twins have been observed being emitted from grain boundaries and, in some cases, even the same grain boundary. The ejection of dislocations from the grain boundary can result in its partial or total annihilation. In the latter case, the disintegration of the grain boundary was accompanied by grain growth and a change in misorientation.

AbstractInformation on the mechanisms of slip transfer across grain boundaries in an HCP α-Ti alloy has been obtained from deformation experiments performed In situ in the transmission electron microscope. Initially, lattice dislocations are accommodated within the grain boundary until a critical local dislocation density is reached. The boundary then responds by activating slip in the adjoining grain on the slip system experiencing the highest local resolved shear stress and producing the residual grain-boundary dislocation with the smallest Burgers vector. Slip on secondary slip systems may be initiated provided they reduce the magnitude of the Burgers vector of, or eliminate, the residual grainboundary dislocation. The selection rules used to predict the slip system activated by the grain boundary are the same as apply in ordered and disordered FCC materials.

The Burgers vectors of secondary grain boundary dislocations, forming networks in near ~9, ~27a, ~27b and ~81a grain boundaries in polycrystalline specimens of a Cu +6 at. % Si alloy, have been determined using the technique of image matching, which involves a comparison of experimental and theoretical electron micrographs. In all cases, the Burgers vectors of the secondary grain boundary dislocations were found to be vectors of the DSC lattice corresponding to the appropriate CSL orientation. Further, in most cases, the Burgers vectors were found to be basis DSC vectors.

In a recent paper1 it was shown that grain boundary ledge structure can be changed by appropriate thermomechanical treatments. Grain boundary ledges are sources of dislocations2. Recently the effects of grain boundaries on the mechanical properties in metals and alloys were studied3,4. For a few years now the structure and properties of grain boundaries and their control have been considered as a means of strengthening polycrystalline materials5,6. Li5 has derived a Hall-Petch type relation in terms of grain boundary dislocation source (ledge) density, m, in the form where L is the grain size, σ0 and α are constants, and G ana b have the usual meaning. The influence of grain boundary ledge density, on the flow stress is considered in this paper.In the present work, pure (99.98%) nickel sheet mill rolled (hot) to 0.022 in. thick was used.
