AbstractThree different types of dislocation interactions with NiFe2O4 (spinel crystal structure) precipitates in a NiO matrix have been studied. In the first, the movement of dislocations introduced by room temperature deformation is impeded by the spinel precipitates. Glide dislocations in the NiO with ½<011> Burgers vectors and {011} glide planes cannot pass through the spinel precipitates without forming stacking faults because the perfect NiO dislocations are partial dislocations in NiFe2O4. Many dislocation loops but no stacking faults were observed in the deformed samples indicating that the gliding dislocations formed the loops when they moved past the precipitates. In the second type of interactions, cusps were formed in the spinel-NiO interface at close to the dislocation loops when the sample was heat treated; the cusps indicate preferential dissolution of the spinel. In the final interaction, the dislocations were shown to act as preferential nucleation sites when spinel was precipitated from the NiO matrix. At slow nucleation rates, NiFe2O4 precipitated only on the dislocations; when the nucleation rate was increased, precipitation occurred both on and away from the dislocations. Precipitates which form at a dislocation may contain a stacking fault extending from the partial dislocation to a cusp in the spinel-NiO interface. When this occurred, the stacking faults were observed to be faceted parallel to either {111} or {011} planes.

The structure of stacking faults and partial dislocations in iron pyrite (FeS2) have been studied using transmission electron microscopy. Pyrite has the NaCl structure in which the sodium ions are replaced by iron and chlorine ions by covalently-bonded pairs of sulfur ions. These sulfur pairs are oriented along the <111> direction. This covalent bond between sulfur atoms is the strongest bond in pyrite with Pa3 space group symmetry. These sulfur pairs are believed to move as a whole during dislocation glide. The lattice structure across these stacking faults is of interest as the presence of these stacking faults has been preliminarily linked to a higher sulfur reactivity in pyrite. Conventional TEM contrast analysis and high resolution lattice imaging of the faulted area in the TEM specimen has been carried out.

AbstractDefect structures in (111) 3C-SiC single crystals, grown using the Baikov technique, have been studied using Synchrotron White Beam X-ray Topography (SWBXT). The major types of defects include complex growth sector boundary structures, double positioning twins, stacking faults on { 111 } planes, inclusions and dislocations (including growth dislocations and partial dislocations bounding stacking faults). Detailed stacking fault and double positioning twin configurations are determined using a combination of Nomarski interference microscopy, SEM and white beam x-ray topography in both transmission and reflection geometries. Possible defect generation phenomena are discussed.


Further experiments by transmission electron microscopy on thin sections of stainless steel deformed by small amounts have enabled extended dislocations to be observed directly. The arrangement and motion of whole and partial dislocations have been followed in detail. Many of the dislocations are found to have piled up against grain boundaries. Other observations include the formation of wide stacking faults, the interaction of dislocations with twin boundaries, and the formation of dislocations at thin edges of the foils. An estimate is made of the stacking-fault energy from a consideration of the stresses present, and the properties of the dislocations are found to be in agreement with those expected from a metal of low stacking-fault energy.

Dislocations in ice behave very differently from those in other materials due to the very low energies of stacking faults in the ice basal plane. As a result, the dislocations dissociate on the basal plane, from a perfect dislocation into two partial dislocations with equilibrium width we ranging from 20 to 500 nm, but what is the timescale to reach this dissociated state? Using physical models, we estimate this timescale by calculating two time-constants: the dissociation-completing time td and the dissociation-beginning time tb. These time constants are calculated for two Burgers vectors as a function of temperature. For perfect dislocations with Burgers vector <c + a>, td is more than one month even at the melting temperature TM, and it exceeds 103 years below −50 ℃, meaning that the dissociation cannot be completed during deformation over laboratory timescales. However, in this case the beginning time tb is less than one second at TM, and it is within several tens of minutes above −50 ℃. These dislocations can glide on non-basal planes until they turn to the dissociated state during deformation, finally resulting in sessile extended dislocations of various widths approaching to the equilibrium value we. In contrast, for perfect dislocations with Burgers vector <a>, td is less than one second above −50 ℃, resulting in glissile extended dislocations with the equilibrium width we on the basal plane. This width is sensitive to the shear stress τ exerted normal to the dislocation line, leading to extension of the intervening stacking fault across the entire crystal grain under commonly accessible stresses. Also, due to the widely dissociated state, dislocations <a> cannot cross-slip to non-basal planes. Such behavior of extended dislocations in ice are notable when compared to those of other materials.

ABSTRACTThe dislocation structures in rapidly solidified Al3Ti with the DO22 structure and the ternary Al-25Ti-8Ni (at.%) alloy with the L12 structure deformed in compression in the temperature range of 25 to 800°C have been studied by transmission electron microscopy. The room temperature deformation microstructure of the Al3Ti compound is characterized by the presence of stacking faults/order twins on {111} planes bounded by partial dislocations with Burgers vector b=1/6<112], as reported by others. At intermediate temperatures, besides the stacking faults, slip is also observed as bands on the {001] plane delineated by dislocations with b=1/2<110] which bound APB's. At 600°C, the reported increase in ductility is associated here with additional slip on the {001)<110], {001)[100] and {001)[010] systems. Dislocations with b=<110] exist as pairs of partial dislocations with b=1/2<110] connected by APB's. The mean separation between the partials was measured to be 30 nm, corresponding to an APB energy of ≍32 mJ.m-2 on the (001) plane. Observations also indicate that the APB energy is anisotropic, i.e., is considerably higher on the {111} planes compared to the {001) plane. The deformation microstructure of the Al-25Ti-8Ni L12 alloy is characterized by slip of dislocations with b=<110> gliding on {111} planes, a major fraction of which exist as dipoles. Following deformation at 300°C, there is essentially no evidence of dissociation of these dislocations, although some dissociated dislocations on (001) having b=l/2<110> are also observed. With an increase in temperature, there is a considerable increase in dislocation activity and strong evidence for 1/2<110> dissociated dislocations is present.

The electronic driving force for growth of stacking faults (SF) in n-type 4H SiC under annealing and in operating devices is discussed. This involves two separate aspects: an overall thermodynamic driving force due to the capture of electrons in interface states and the barriers that need to be overcome to create dislocation kinks which advance the motion of partial dislocations and hence expansion of SF. The second problem studied in this paper is whether 3C SiC quantum wells in 4H SiC can have band gaps lower than 3C SiC. First-principles band structure calculations show that this is not the case due to the intrinsic screening of the spontaneous polarization fields.

ABSTRACTMelt textured YBa2Cu3O/Y2BaCuO5 were post processed by high oxygen pressure for different periods and temperatures. This process permits the control of the microstructure, in particular the growth and shape of the stacking faults and thereby the partial dislocation density. Analysis of the Jc(H,T) behavior allow to separate the contribution of Y2BaCuO5 interface from that of dislocations. It is shown that the in-plane partial dislocations act as point-like pinning centers increasing Jc up to 180% but this enhancement factor is counterbalanced by the effect of the stacking faults associated to the partial dislocations.
