Variation of low temperature internal friction at microplastic deformation of high purity molybdenum single crystals

Amplitude and temperature spectra of ultrasound absorption in weakly deformed high purity molybdenum single crystals of different orientations were measured. The results were discussed in terms of parameter changes related to quasiparticle- or dislocation oscillations, respectively, dislocation-point defect interactions as well as defect generation at microplastic deformation.
