Formation of fivefold deformation twins in an ultrafine-grained copper alloy processed by high-pressure torsion

Formation of fivefold deformation twins in an ultrafine-grained copper alloy processed by high-pressure torsion
Fivefold deformation twins (DTs) are formed in an ultrafine grain, with a size of 100 nm, of a Cu–16 at.% Al alloy processed by high-pressure torsion. Formation occurs through the sequential emission of partial dislocations from grain boundaries and other multiple twin boundaries. These observations confirm the emission of partial dislocations from multiple-fold nodes which can be attributed to increased twinnability via the introduction of Al atoms which lower the driving force for partial emission.

Abstract

Fivefold deformation twins (DTs) are formed in an ultrafine grain, with a size of 100 nm, of a Cu–16 at.% Al alloy processed by high-pressure torsion. Formation occurs through the sequential emission of partial dislocations from grain boundaries and other multiple twin boundaries. These observations confirm the emission of partial dislocations from multiple-fold nodes which can be attributed to increased twinnability via the introduction of Al atoms which lower the driving force for partial emission.
