The core structure of ½(111) screw dislocations in b.c.c. crystals

Abstract A relaxation-type calculation of the structure of the dislocation core has been made for the ½ 〈111〉 screw dislocation in b.c.c. crystals, using a variety of central-force potentials. Two stable configurations were found, corresponding to the centre of the dislocation being along either the... View More
