Abstract

In situ atomic-scale imaging of deformation in silver nanocrystals reveals that it is possible to achieve deformability and high strength, attributed to a coupling mechanism between crystal slip and surface diffusional creep.

Sample dimensions influence strength and crystal plasticity.

Michael Uchic, Dennis M Dimiduk, Jeffrey N Florando … (2004)

When a crystal deforms plastically, phenomena such as dislocation storage, multiplication, motion, pinning, and nucleation occur over the submicron-to-nanometer scale. Here we report measurements of plastic yielding for single crystals of micrometer-sized dimensions for three different types of metals. We find that within the tests, the overall sample dimensions artificially limit the length scales available for plastic processes. The results show dramatic size effects at surprisingly large sample dimensions. These results emphasize that at the micrometer scale, one must define both the external geometry and internal structure to characterize the strength of a material.
