The electroplastic effect in materials is an interesting and potentially useful phenomenon in which an applied electric field affects the plastic flow properties of materials under strain. We have undertaken a study to use optical methods to monitor changes in alkali halide crystals undergoing the electroplastic effect. Some preliminary results from this work are presented along with more conventional quasi-static measurements of the electroplastic effect.

The influence of electric fields on the deformation and flow properties of materials has been a subject of interest for many years. Recently, there has been renewed interest in a particular branch of these electric field effects—the electrorheological (ER) effect. The ER effect is also known as the Winslow effect after its founder Willis Winslow. Winslow observed that applying strong electric fields to nonaqueous silica suspensions activated with a small amount of water caused rapid solidification of the originally fluid material. This type of behavior was seen as instrumental in the development of high-speed valves, reactive damping systems, and a host of other applications.

The behavior of charged dislocations in alkali-halide crystals has been drawing attention in connection with the charge transfer which occurs during plastic deformation.1-9 Recently, Itagaki proposed a charged dislocation mechanism to account for the dielectric properties of ice.10 His theory is in part supported by the dielectric measurements o f strained ice made by Ackley and Itagaki.11 Brantley and Bauer12 derived similar equations for the dielectric constant based on charged dislocation motion. They also proposed a new mechanism for apparent piezoelectricity based on moving charged dislocations in an electric field .
