The origin of high-density dislocations in additively manufactured metals

The origin of dense dislocations in many additively manufactured metals remains a mystery. We here employed pure Cu as a prototype and fabricated the very challenging high-purity (>99.9%) bulk Cu by laser powder-bed-fusion (L-PBF) technique. We found that high-density dislocations were present in...
