ABSTRACTWe present evidence for the operation on reconstructed Au(001) of a novel mechanism, involving dislocation motion, which is much more efficient than surface diffusion to redistribute mass around nanoindentations. Cross-slip of individual dislocations generated around the indentation point, with a screw component perpendicular to the surface, is shown to be responsible for the generation of multiple-storied, crystallographically-oriented terraces around the nanoindentation points. We also show that standard dislocation theory can be used to quantitatively describe the characteristics of the dislocations involved in the different processes around the nanoindentation.

ABSTRACTWe investigated the effect of stacking fault free energy (SFE), on the magnitude of the indentation size effect (ISE) of several pure FCC metals using nanoindentation. The metals chosen were 99.999% Aluminum, 99.95% Nickel, 99.95% Silver, and 70/30 Copper Zinc (α-brass). Aluminum has a high SFE of about 200 mJ/ m2, whereas α -brass has a low SFE of less than 10 mJ/ m2. Nickel and Silver have intermediate SFE of about 128 mJ/ m2 and 22 mJ/m2 respectively. The SFE is an important interfacial characteristic and plays a significant role in the deformation of FCC metals due to its influence on dislocation movement and morphology. The SFE is a measure of the distance between partial dislocations and has a direct impact on the ability of dislocations to cross slip during plastic deformation. The lower the SFE the larger the separation between partial dislocations and thus cross slip and dynamic recovery are inhibited. The SFE impacts pure metals differently from alloys. It was discovered that the characteristic ISE behavior for the pure metals was different when compared to the α-brass which is an alloy. Several additional alloys were chosen for comparison including 7075 Aluminum and 70/30 Nickel Copper.

AbstractA stochastic model is proposed to study dislocation dynamics in metallic single crystals. A Langevin type thermal fluctuation is taken into account for the model to maintain thermal equilibrium. This approach works as Brownian motion of segmental dislocations. Additionally, a new model for implementing the cross slip mechanism in FCC metals is developed based on results obtained by atomistic simulations. This new model is capable of simulating realistic thermal processes such as thermally activated dislocation motion during easy glide or cross slip during cold working of metals.
