The room temperature deformation behavior of a LiNbO3 single crystal loaded along [0001] was studied by spherical nanoindentation. The threefold symmetry of the indentation marks was attributed to the formation of (10¯12) twins that reorient the basal planes to allow for basal slip, which is manifested by the formation of fully reversible, hysteretic loops upon cyclic loading. The differences in energy dissipation, threshold stresses, and loop shapes for the three different radii tips are attributed to the different sized twins that form. The results are consistent with our model for the formation of incipient kink bands within the twins.

The deformation behavior of the Γ (gamma) phase in the Fe-Zn system has been investigated via room-temperature compression tests of single-crystal micropillar specimens fabricated by the focused ion beam method. Trace analysis of slip lines indicates that {110} slip occurs for the specimens investigated in the present study. Although the slip direction has not been uniquely determined, the slip direction might be <111> in consideration of the crystal structure of the Γ phase (bcc).

ABSTRACTThe deformation behavior of single crystals of Mo(Si,Al)2 with the C40 structure has been studied as a function of crystal orientation and Al content in the temperature range from room temperature to 1500°C in compression. Plastic flow is possible only above 1100°C for orientations where slip along <1120> on (0001) is operative and no other slip systems are observed over whole temperature range investigated. The critical resolved shear stress for basal slip decreases rapidly with increasing temperature and the Schmid law is valid. Basal slip appears to occur through a synchroshear mechanism, in which a-dislocations (b=1/3<1120>) dissociate into two synchro-partial dislocations with the identical Burgers vector(b*1/6<1120>) and each synchro-partial further dissociates into two partials on two adjacent planes.

The stress-induced martensitic transformation and slip deformation behavior were investigated by the compression test with anin-situobservation in a Ti-6Mo-10Al (mol %) alloy single crystal. Owing to the stress-induced martensitic transformation from the parent β phase to the α′′ martensite phase, the single crystal of α′′ martensite without internal twinnings was successfully obtained at room temperature. By further compression, the slip deformation occurred in the single crystal of α′′ martensite. The operated slip system in the α′′ martensite was analyzed by the two face trace analyses, and the slip direction was determined to be []o.

An all-oxide Al2O3-TiO2 ceramic multilayer composed of 10–100 nm thick alternating layers was fabricated using the reactive magnetron sputtering process. Microindentation tests were carried out on the multilayer ceramic followed by microstructural observations of the cross-sections of the indented sites to characterize the indentation response of the system. During the observations, it was noted that an extensive room temperature “deformation” occurred in the multilayer ceramic material. The material shows a thickness reduction of as much as ∼40% under a conical indenter at 300 mN of load without microcracking and dislocation-assisted deformation. The room temperature deformation mechanism is governed by the relative movement and rearrangement of the anisotropic nanoscale columnar grains along the intergranular boundaries containing elongated voids. The relative sliding along the intergranular boundaries, and the subsequent granular rotation under indentation were well captured by finite element simulation.

AbstractThe deformation behavior of (0001) <1210> basal slip in single crystals of five different transitionmetal disilicides with the C40 structure has been investigated in the temperature range from room temperature to 1500°C in compression. These disilicides are found to be classified into two groups depending on the onset temperature for plastic flow. The low-temperature group, which consists of VSi2, NbSi2 and TaSi2, exhibits the onset temperature for plastic flow around 0.3 T/Tm (melting temperature) and deforms by a conventional shear mechanism. In contrast, the high temperature group, which consists of CrSi2 and Mo(Si,Al)2, exhibits the onset temperature around 0.6T/Tm and deforms by a synchroshear mechanism. Factors affecting the deformation mechanism in these C40 disilicides are discussed in terms of directionality of atomic bonding and the relative stability of the C40 phase with respect to the C11b phase.

ABSTRACTA detailed study of deformation of NiAl single crystals in two soft orientations, <110> and <111>, has been conducted. The Schmid factor favors {100} slip in the former and {110} slip in the latter. Detailed dislocation analysis, critical resolved shear stress measurements, and slip trace analysis have been performed to determine the nature of dislocation motion and interactions in this material. Particular attention is given to prismatic loops formed during deformation, since the shapes of these loops reveal the active slip planes. Similar loop morphologies observed in elevated temperature [001] oriented tensile specimens are also discussed.
