A rebound mechanism for misfit dislocation creation in metallic nanolayers

Abstract

A modified version of the Dregia-Hirth rebound mechanism for misfit dislocation creation is observed in atomistic models of CuNi nanolayered structures. Under applied compression glide dislocations in Cu layers undergo a reaction at the CuNi interface to produce another glide dislocation and a misfit dislocation.
