RESEARCH IN THE GENERAL FIELD OF SUBSTRUCTURE AND DISLOCATION NETWORKS IN METALLIC CRYSTALS.
Abstract
The three dimensional aspects of dislocation substructures were studied in cadmium doped zinc crystals grown from the melt. Precipitates delineating the dis locations were revealed by etching a surface closely parallel to the slip plane. Using a technique of continuous etching and cinephotomicrography, the course of the dislocations was followed through the crystal. Tangles of dislocations were observed in deformed crystals. After annealing a rearrangement of dislocations into low-angle and hexagonal networks was evidenced. Closed loops and spiral dislocations were found to be associated with large inclusions. A mechanism for the multiplication of dislocations at inclusions was proposed. Dislocation reactions accounting for the observed substructures have been proposed. (Author)
