A discrete model describing defects in crystal lattices and having the standard linear anisotropic elasticity as its continuum limit is proposed. The main ingredients entering the model are the elastic stiffness constants of the material…
As fundamental one-dimensional defects, screw dislocations profoundly reshape the energy landscape and carrier dynamics of crystalline materials. By restoring the exact algebra of the screw dislocation group, we unveil the latent symmetry…
In this paper we present the equations of motion of a moving screw dislocation in the framework of the translation gauge theory of dislocations. In the gauge field theoretical formulation, a dislocation is a massive gauge field. We…
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…
We investigate the phase ordering kinetics of skyrmion lattice (SkL) in a metallic magnet. The SkL can be viewed as a superposition of magnetic stripes whose periods are determined by the quasi-nesting wave vectors of the underlying Fermi…
On the basis of the classical dislocation theory, the Solid Solution Hardening (SSH) is commonly ascribed to the pinning of the edge dislocations. At the atomic level, the theoretical study of the dislocation cores contrasts with such a…
The properties of perfect screw dislocations have been investigated for several zinc-blende materials such as diamond, Si, $\beta$-SiC, Ge and GaAs, by performing first principles calculations. For almost all elements, a core configuration…
Magnetic skyrmions, topological spin textures observed in chiral magnets, have attracted huge interest due to their applications in the field of spintronics. In this work we study the stability of circular isolated skyrmions in…
Formation of isolated chiral skyrmions by homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation has been studied in thin layers of cubic helimagnets via elongation of torons and chiral bobbers, correspondingly. Both torons and bobbers are localized in…
In this work, we investigate the topological properties of knotted defects in smectic liquid crystals. Our story begins with screw dislocations, whose radial surface structure can be smoothly accommodated on $S^3$ for fibred knots by using…
A number of recent Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations have demonstrated that screw dislocations in face centered cubic (fcc) metals can achieve stable steady state motion above the lowest shear wave speed ($v_\text{shear}$) which is…
The analytical solution of the periodic elastic field in chiral magnets caused by presence of periodically distributed eigenstrains is obtained. For the skyrmion phase, both the periodic displacement field and the stress field are composed…
A Weyl semimetal pierced by a screw dislocation accommodates one-dimensional (1D) chiral states along the corresponding dislocation line. As these states propagate in a particular direction determined by their chirality, a persistent…
Dislocations, as topological defects in crystal lattices, are fundamental to understanding plasticity in materials. Similar periodic structures also arise in continuum field theories, such as chiral soliton lattices (CSLs), which appear in…
The interaction between carbon and screw dislocations in tungsten is investigated using ab initio calculations. The presence of carbon atoms in the vicinity of the dislocation induces a reconstruction, with the dislocation relaxing to a…
In this paper, we proposed a novel method using the elementary number theory to investigate the discrete nature of the screw dislocations in crystal lattices, simple cubic (SC) lattice and body centered cubic (BCC) lattice, by developing…
Dislocation pinning plays a vital role in the plastic behaviour of a crystalline solid. Here we report the first observation of the damped oscillations of a mobile dislocation after it gets pinned at an obstacle in the presence of a…
Ab initio calculations in bcc iron show that a <111> screw dislocation induces a short-range dilatation field in addition to the Volterra elastic field. This core field is modeled in anisotropic elastic theory using force dipoles. The…
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…
Smectic liquid crystals are charcterized by layers that have a preferred uniform spacing and vanishing curvature in their ground state. Dislocations in the smectics play an important role in phase nucleation, layer reorientation, and…
