Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present research is to ellucidate the microscopic mechanism of plastic deformation of quasicrystals by analyzing the elementary process of dislocatin glide. We deformed single quasicrystals at high temperatures, and performed thermal-activation analysis of plastic deformation and electron microscopy observation. The main results for Al-(Cu, Ni)-Co decagonal quasicrystals are : 【encircled1】the yield strength depends sensitively on the quality of the sample : those of high quality samples are twice as high as those of low quality samples ; 【encircled2】the yield stress for slip in periodic direction is not much different from that in quasiperiodic direction, 【encircled3】dislocations introduced are straight. The main results for Al-Pd-Mn icosahedral quasicrystals are : 【encircled1】the dragging stresses for the dislocation glide due to phason defect production, which have been estimated from the stress-relaxation tests, are in the range of 20 to 50% of the flow stress, 【encircled2】true-stress vs true-strain analysis shows that after exhibiting maximum the true stress continuously decreases towards minimum at around the true strain of 0.5 and then changes to gradual hardening at higher strain, 【encircled3】activation analysis showed that the maximum flow stress and minimum flow stress are governed by different activation enthalpies. Based on these results, we propose the following microscopic deformation mechanism : 【encircled1】glide resistance to dislocation glide consists of athermal component due to phason strain production and thermal component due to Peierls potential, 【encircled2】due to the quasiperiodicity of the lattice the kink-pair formation enthalpy is not unique, 【encircled3】in the perfect quasilattice the dislocation glide velocity is governed by the large kink-pair formation enthalpy while in phason-defected quasilattice it is governed by small kink-pair formation enthalpy since kink migration is much easier than the kink-pair formation.
