Dislocations (Linear Defects)
Dislocations:
• are line defects (linear defect around which some of the atoms are
misaligned; lattice distortions are centered around a line)
• slip between crystal planes result when dislocations move
• produce permanent (plastic) deformation
• formed during: solidification, permanent deformation, atomic
mismatch in solid solution
Schematic of Zinc (HCP):
• after tensile elongation
• before deformation
slip steps (slip bands)
14
Dislocations (Linear Defects)
•Edge dislocation
•Screw dislocation
•Mixed dislocation
15
Edge Dislocations
• Created by insertion of extra half planes of atoms in a lattice.
• The dislocation is called a line defect because the locus of
defective points produced in the lattice by the dislocation lie
along a line.
• Burgers vector: shows displacement of atoms (slip) or
measure of lattice distortion (magnitude & direction)

Solution:
This problem may be solved by using equation
Q
N = N exp (– --- )

However it is necessary to determine the value N, number of
atomic sites per cubic meter first
