Atomic Force Microscopy Study of Discrete Dislocation Pile-ups at Grain Boundaries in Bi-Crystalline Micro-Pillars

Compression tests at low strains were performed to theoretically analyze the effects of anisotropic elasticity, misorientation, grain boundary (GB) stiffness, interfacial dislocations, free surfaces, and critical force on dislocation pile-ups in micro-sized Face-Centered Cubic (FCC) Nickel (Ni) and...
