The breakdown of the Schmid law in bcc metals has been known for a long time. The asymmetry of shearing in the slip direction <111> in the positive and negative sense, respectively, commonly identified with the twinning-antitwinning…
By direct application of stress in molecular statics calculations we identify the stress components that affect the glide of 1/2<111> screw dislocations in bcc tungsten. These results prove that the hydrostatic stress and the normal stress…
Owing to their non-planar cores 1/2<111> screw dislocations govern the plastic deformation of BCC metals. Atomistic studies of the glide of these dislocations at 0 K have been performed using Bond Order Potentials for molybdenum and…
Helimagnets realize an effective lamellar ordering that supports disclination and dislocation defects. Here, we investigate the micromagnetic structure of screw dislocation lines in cubic chiral magnets using analytical and numerical…
Plasticity in zirconium is controlled by 1/3<1-210> screw dislocations gliding in the prism planes of the hexagonal close-packed structure. This prismatic and not basal glide is observed for a given set of transition metals like zirconium…
Plasticity in hexagonal close-packed zirconium is mainly controlled by the glide of dislocations with 1/3<1-210> Burgers vectors. As these dislocations cannot accommodate deformation in the [0001] direction , twinning or glide of <c+a>…
Defects in semiconductors have recently attracted renewed interest owing to their potential in novel quantum applications. Here we investigate the electronic and magnetic properties induced by 60{\deg} dislocations in Ge. Using large-scale…
Compared to cubic metals, whose primary slip mode includes twelve equivalent systems, the lower crystalline symmetry of hexagonal close-packed metals results in a reduced number of equivalent primary slips and anisotropy in plasticity,…
We report on the study of a magnetic dislocation in pure chromium. Coherent x-ray diffraction profiles obtained on the incommensurate Spin Density Wave (SDW) reflection are consistent with the presence of a dislocation of the magnetic…
The deformation behaviour of the intermetallic Al$_{2}$Cu-phase was investigated using atomistic simulations and micropillar compression, where slip on the unexpected {211} and {022} slip planes was revealed. Additionally, all possible slip…
In body-centred-cubic (bcc) metals migrating 1/2<111> screw dislocations experience a periodic energy landscape with a triangular symmetry. Atomistic simulations, such as those performed using the nudged-elastic-band (NEB) method, generally…
It is well known that diamond does not deform plastically at room temperature and usually fails in catastrophic brittle fracture. Here we demonstrate room-temperature dislocation plasticity in sub-micrometer sized diamond pillars by in-situ…
The Peierls stress of the a/2<110> screw dislocation belonging to the shuffle set is calculated for silicon using density functional theory. We have checked the effect of boundary conditions by using two models, the supercell method where…
Plasticity in body-centred cubic (BCC) metals, including dislocation interactions at grain boundaries, is much less understood than in face-centred cubic (FCC) metals. At low temperatures additional resistance to dislocation motion due to…
Dislocation core properties of tin (\beta-Sn) were investigated using the semi-discrete variational Peierls-Nabarro model (SVPN). The SVPN model, which connects the continuum elasticity treatment of the long-range strain field around a…
Plasticity in hexagonal close-packed zirconium is controlled by screw dislocations which easily glide in the prismatic planes where they are dissociated. At high enough temperatures, these dislocations can deviate out of the prism planes to…
Plastic flow in body-centered cubic (BCC) metals and dilute/concentrated alloys is governed by the motion of <111> screw dislocations, whose glide is often impeded by cross-kinks (jogs). While existing strengthening models typically treat…
Plasticity in hexagonal close packed (HCP) metals and alloys such as Titanium (Ti) and Zirconium (Zr) is carried out by the motion of $\langle a \rangle$ dislocations. Above room temperature, in situ transmission electron microscopy…
The cross-slip process of a screw $<$a$>$ dislocation from the basal to the prismatic plane in magnesium was studied using the density functional theory and the molecular dynamics calculations. An atomistic method for calculating the total…
The interaction of two screw dislocations in smectic-A liquid crystals is treated using an anharmonic correction to the elastic energy density. In the present contribution the elastic energy and the force between two screw dislocations is…
