A new micromechanism of nucleating deformation twins in nanocrystalline and ultrafine-grained materials under action of severe mechanical stresses has been proposed and theoretically described. The mechanism is a subsequent splitting of grain-boundary dislocations into lattice partial and sessile grain-boundary dislocations. Ensembles of gliding partial dislocation forms deformation twins. The energy characteristics of this process are calculated. The nucleation of the twins is shown to be energetically profitable and can be athermic (without an energy barrier) under conditions of severe mechanical stress. The dependence of a critical stress at which the barrier-less nucleation of twins took place on the widths of these twins is calculated.  相似文献

A theoretical model is proposed to describe the emission of partial dislocations by grain boundaries in nanocrystalline materials during plastic deformation. Partial dislocations are assumed to be emitted during the motion of grain-boundary disclinations, which are carriers of rotational plastic deformation. The ranges of the parameters of a defect structure in which the emission of partial dislocations by grain boundaries in nanocrystalline metals are energetically favorable are calculated. It is shown that, as the size of a grain decreases, the emission of partial dislocations by its boundary becomes more favorable as compared to the emission of perfect lattice dislocations.  相似文献

A theoretical model is proposed to describe the physical mechanisms of hardening and softening of nanocrystalline materials during superplastic deformation. According to this model, triple interface junctions are obstacles to glide motion of grain boundary dislocations, which are carriers of grain boundary glide deformation. Transformations of an ensemble of grain boundary dislocations that occur at triple interface junctions bring about the formation of partial dislocations and the local migration of triple junctions. The energy characteristics of these transformations are considered. Pileups of partial dislocations at triple junctions cause hardening and initiate intragrain lattice sliding. When the Burgers vectors of partial dislocations reach a critical value, lattice dislocations are emitted and glide into adjacent grains, thereby smoothing the hardening effect. The local migration of triple interface junctions (caused by grain boundary sliding) and the emission of lattice dislocations bring about softening of a nanocrystalline material. The flow stress is found as a function of the total plastic strain, and the result agrees well with experimental data.  相似文献

The forces on dislocations propagating through twins are calculated using the anisotropic elasticity. The anisotropic boundary force is calculated assuming that the twin boundary is of the welded type. The stresses necessary for the passage of dislocations through twins are compared with the estimated stresses for a homogeneous thermally activated nucleation of twins.  相似文献

We present a generalized Peierls–Nabarro model for curved dislocations incorporating directly the Peierls energies for both straight dislocations and dislocation kinks. In our model, the anisotropic elastic energy is calculated efficiently using the discrete Fourier transform on the discrete lattice sites of the slip plane, and the discreteness in both the elastic energy and the misfit energy is included. We have used our model to calculate the kink migration and nucleation energies of the 30° dislocations in silicon. The results agree well with those obtained using atomistic potentials and first principles calculations, and the experimental results.  相似文献

The surface nucleation of misfit dislocations in vicinal (001) oriented heterostructures with compressive and tensile stresses is discussed. It is shown that beside the asymmetrical stressing of opposite dislocation slip planes due to the vicinal substrate, the surface steps have a similar effect. The effect of the steps has the same-sign asymmetry for a compressive stressed epilayer, but opposite for the tensile case. The effect on dislocation nucleation energy is calculated. For miscut angles used normally, the step energy contribution exceeds that of due to the vicinal substrate. The extension to interface nucleation is treated qualitatively.  相似文献

Improved understanding of the plastic deformation of metals during high-strain-rate shock loading is key to predicting their resulting material properties. This paper presents the results of molecular-dynamics simulations which address two fundamental questions related to materials deformation: the stability of supersonic dislocations and the mechanism of nano-twin formation. The results show that aluminium plastically deforms by the subsonic motion of edge dislocations when subjected to applied shear stresses of up to 600?MPa. Although higher applied stresses initially drive transonic dislocations, this motion is transient, and the dislocations decelerate to a sustained subsonic saturation velocity. Slowing of the transonic dislocation is controlled by the interaction with excited Rayleigh waves. 800?MPa marks a critical shear stress at which dislocation glide gives way to nano-twin formation via the homogeneous nucleation of Shockley partial dislocation dipoles. At still higher applied stresses, additional dislocation dipole nucleation produces a mid-stacking fault transformation of the twinned material.  相似文献

Novel shape memory behaviour was discovered recently in single-crystalline fcc nanowires of Cu, Ni and Au with lateral dimensions below 5?nm. Under proper thermomechanical conditions, these wires can recover elongations up to 50%. This phenomenon only exists at the nanoscale and is associated with reversible lattice reorientations within the fcc lattice structure driven by surface stresses. Whereas the propagation of partial dislocations and twin planes specific to fcc metals are the required mechanism, only materials with higher propensities for twinning (e.g. Cu and Ni) show this behaviour and those with lower propensities for twinning (e.g. Al) do not. This paper provides an overview of this novel behaviour with a focus on the transformation mechanism, driving force, reversible strain, size and temperature effects and energy dissipation. A mechanism-based micromechanical continuum model for the tensile behaviour is developed. This model uses a decomposition of the lattice reorientation process into a reversible, smooth transition between a series of phase-equilibrium states and a superimposed irreversible, dissipative propagation of a twin boundary. The reversible part is associated with strain energy functions with multiple local minima and quantifies the energy conversion process between the twinning phases. The irreversible part is due to the ruggedness of the strain energy landscape, associated with dislocation nucleation, gliding and annihilation, and characterizes the dissipation during the transformation. This model captures all major characteristics of the behaviour, quantifies the size and temperature effects and yields results which are in excellent agreement with data from molecular dynamics simulations.  相似文献

The dissociated core structure of dislocation in two-dimensional triangular lattice is determined by the variational method within lattice theory. The dissociation effect leads to a narrower core width of partial dislocations than the compact one. The equilibrium separation between two partial dislocations is not very sensitive to the intrinsic stacking fault energy and there exists deviation from the intrinsic stacking fault energy criterion in the continuous elastic theory of dislocation. The relationship between the equilibrium separation and intrinsic stacking fault energy is analogous in lattice theory and the Peierls-Nabarro model. But the equilibrium separation obtained in lattice theory is wider than that obtained in the Peierls-Nabarro model for the same intrinsic stacking fault energy.   相似文献

Lattice-mismatch-induced surface or film stress has significant influence on the morphology of heteroepitaxial films. This is demonstrated using Sb surfactant-mediated epitaxy of Ge on Si(111). The surfactant forces a two-dimensional growth of a continous Ge film instead of islanding. Two qualitatively different growth regimes are observed. Elastic relaxation: Prior to the generation of strain-relieving defects the Ge film grows pseudomorphically with the Si lattice constant and is under strong compressive stress. The Ge film relieves strain by forming a rough surface on a nm scale which allows partial elastic relaxation towards the Ge bulk lattice constant. The unfavorable increase of surface area is outbalanced by the large decrease of strain energy. The change of film stress and surface morphology is monitored in situ during deposition at elevated temperature with surface stress-induced optical deflection and high-resolution spot profile analysis low-energy electron diffraction. Plastic relaxation: After a critical thickness the generation of dislocations is initiated. The rough phase acts as a nucleation center for dislocations. On Si(111) those misfit dislocations are arranged in a threefold quasi periodic array at the interface that accommodate exactly the different lattice constants of Ge and Si.

A theoretical model for emission of lattice dislocations from small-angle interphase boundaries characterized by both orientational and dilatational misfit in deformed nanocomposites is proposed. With allowance for the free surface of the material, the forces acting upon the dislocation structures of the interphase boundaries are calculated, through which the dependences of the critical shear stress for dislocation emission on different parameters of the boundary are found. It is shown that the influence of dilatational misfit and proximity of the interphase boundary to the free surface on dislocation emission is insignificant. It is established that the ability of interphase boundaries to emit dislocations is not uniform: emission of certain dislocations is facilitated as compared to ordinary small-angle grain boundaries, while emission of other dislocations may be inhibited.  相似文献

The interactions of He with dissociated screw dislocations in face-centered-cubic(fcc) Ni are investigated by using molecular dynamics simulations based on an embedded-atom method model.The binding and formation energies of interstitial He in and near Shockley partial cores are calculated.The results show that interstitial He atoms at tetrahedral sites in the perfect fcc lattice and atoms occupying sites one plane above or below one of the two Shockley partial cores exhibit the strongest binding energy.The attractive or repulsive nature of the interaction between interstitial He and the screw dislocation depends on the relative position of He to these strong binding sites.In addition,the effect of He on the dissociation of screw dislocations are investigated.It is found that He atoms homogeneously distributed in the glide plane can reduce the stacking fault width.  相似文献

Atomistic computer simulations were performed to investigate the mechanisms of grain-boundary sliding in bcc Fe using molecular statics and molecular dynamics with embedded-atom method interatomic potentials. For this study we have chosen the Σ?=?5, (310)[001] symmetrical tilt boundary with tilt angle θ?=?36.9°. Sliding was determined to be governed by grain-boundary dislocation activity with Burgers vectors belonging to the displacement shift complete lattice. The sliding process was found to occur through the nucleation and glide of partial grain-boundary dislocations, with a secondary grain-boundary structure playing an important role in the sliding process. Interstitial impurities and vacancies were introduced into the grain boundary to study their role as nucleation sites for the grain-boundary dislocations. While vacancies and H interstitials act as preferred nucleation sites, C interstitials to not.  相似文献

The specific features in the generation and motion of dislocations in silicon single-crystal wafers after different heat treatments are investigated by the four-point bending technique. It is demonstrated that annealing of silicon single-crystal wafers at a temperature of 450°C leads to their substantial hardening as compared to the postgrowth state. The oxygen-containing precipitates and precipitate dislocation pileups formed in the silicon wafer bulk during multistage heat treatment are efficient heterogeneous nucleation sites of dislocations under the action of thermal or mechanical stresses. It is found that the multistage heat treatment of the silicon wafers under conditions providing the formation of an internal getter within their bulk results in considerable disordering of the wafer structure. The inference is made that the formation of the defect state in the crystal lattice of silicon and the strength characteristics of silicon wafers substantially depend on the temperature-time schedules of the low-temperature stage of multistage heat treatment.  相似文献

This “in situ” and real time study is an approach to the role of matrix dislocations in the nucleation of the α or β phases in titanium single crystals. When the dislocations interact, forming tangles, subboundaries…, the residual stresses, present at the transformation temperature, trigger the new phase. If the dislocations are isolated at the transformation temperature they are destabilized by the large crystalline anisotropy resulting from the vibrational entropy dependence with the temperature. These dislocations disappear and do no act as preferential nucleation sites.  相似文献

The plastic deformation mechanism of Cu/Ag multilayers is investigated by molecular dynamics(MD) simulation in a nanoindentation process. The result shows that due to the interface barrier, the dislocations pile-up at the interface and then the plastic deformation of the Ag matrix occurs due to the nucleation and emission of dislocations from the interface and the dislocation propagation through the interface. In addition, it is found that the incipient plastic deformation of Cu/Ag multilayers is postponed, compared with that of bulk single-crystal Cu. The plastic deformation of Cu/Ag multilayers is affected by the lattice mismatch more than by the difference in stacking fault energy(SFE) between Cu and Ag. The dislocation pile-up at the interface is determined by the obstruction of the mismatch dislocation network and the attraction of the image force. Furthermore, this work provides a basis for further understanding and tailoring metal multilayers with good mechanical properties, which may facilitate the design and development of multilayer materials with low cost production strategies.  相似文献

Even at ambient temperature or less, below their 0.2% proof stresses all hexagonal close-packed metals and alloys show creep behaviour because they have dislocation arrays lying on a single slip system with no tangled dislocation inside each grain. In this case, lattice dislocations move without obstacles and pile-up in front of a grain boundary. Then these dislocations must be accommodated at the grain boundary to continue creep deformation. Atomic force microscopy revealed the occurrence of grain boundary sliding (GBS) in the ambient-temperature creep region. Lattice rotation of 5° was observed near grain boundaries by electron backscatter diffraction pattern analyses. Because of an extra low apparent activation energy of 20 kJ/mol, conventional diffusion processes are not activated. To accommodate these piled-up dislocations without diffusion processes, lattice dislocations must be absorbed by grain boundaries through a slip-induced GBS mechanism.  相似文献

In this article, we examine the conditions that favour the emission of Shockley partial dislocations (SPDs) that standoff from a grain boundary (GB) plane by a few lattice parameters as part of the atomic structure of some GBs. To do so, we consider GBs to be formed by the operation of arrays of intrinsic grain boundary dislocations (GBDs) that create the tilt and twist misorientation, and the lattice mismatch between the two crystal grains adjoining the GB. The conditions to be considered that favour SPDs are the following: (1) Frank’s rule, (2) the proper sequential arrangement of partial dislocations to bound an intrinsic stacking fault and (3) the equilibrium stand-off distance (ESD). We apply an isotropic elasticity analysis to compute the ESD, in the absence of an applied stress, for SPDs emerging from asymmetric tilt GBs in two FCC metals, Cu and Al. The ESD is shown to be dependent on the glide plane orientation relative to the GB plane and on the position of the glide planes, relative to the position of the GBDs. An applied stress increases the ESD up to a critical stress that removes the SPDs without limit from the GB. We examine the effect of the stacking fault energy on the ESD and critical stress. The critical stress is effectively linearly dependent on the stacking fault energy. Finally, we present results of atomistic simulations of asymmetric tilt Σ11[1?0?1]{4?1?4}||{2?5?2} GBs in Cu bicrystal models subject to shock loading that behave in a manner similar to the elasticity predictions. The atomistic simulations reveal additional behaviour associated with elastic incompatibility between the two grains in the bicrystal models.  相似文献
