DISSOCIATION AND PLASTICITY OF LAYER CRYSTALS

P. Delavignette

The deformation process in an ideal layer crystal proceeds exclusively by dislocations gliding along the basal plane. No tangling of the dislocations is expected. Structural defects present before deformation are responsible of hardening and work hardening. This is the case for Frank dislocation loops and non-basal grow-in dislocations. In non ideal layer crystals, a secondary glide system may sometimes be operative, giving rise to work hardening.
