The Dissociation of Sessile Superdislocations at a Coherent Twin Eoundary in Ordered CU3AU During Plastic Deformation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 February 2011
Abstract
The glide behaviour of superdislocations at a coherent twin boundary in ordered Cu3Au was examined in a transmission electron microscope for the case when the superdislocations are sessile in the boundary. Possible schemes for dissociation of a superdislocation in the boundary were analysed geometrically. The leading superpartial of each superdislocation dissociated into a superpartial in the matrix and a residual Shockley partial in the boundary of glissile type. The trailing superpartial remained undissociated in the boundary. The superpartial in the matrix glided on a cube plane, and a ribbon of APB connected to the boundary was left in its trail. The cube slip occurs as a result of (i) a maximal resolved shear stress for the observed slip system and (ii) the geometric criteria for slip applied to all possible slip systems in the matrix. The Schmid factors for the slip systems in the matrix could be calculated by assuming a uniform tensile axis in the foil. The tensile axis was deduced from the observed slip systems in the twin.
