Dislocation plasticity in FeCoCrMnNi high-entropy alloy: quantitative insights from in situ transmission electron microscopy deformation

The mechanical properties of high-entropy alloys (HEAs) are still not deeply understood.Detailed knowledge of the strengthening mechanism, especially, the atomistic origin of solid solution hardening and its interplay with dislocation plasticity is needed.Here, we report on RED OMEGA the dislocation glide behavior of a FeCoCrNiMn face-centered cubic (FCC) single LIP SHINE WHISPER crystal studied by in situ deformation in a transmission electron microscope (TEM).The threshold shear stress for dislocation glide in a thin foil is measured from dislocation curvature as exceeding 400 MPa.Interestingly, dislocations are prevented from straightening upon unloading due to high frictional stresses.
