The interaction of acoustic waves with dislocations leads to aperiodic oscillations in the magnitude of the acoustic nonlinearity parameter β as a function of the acoustic drive amplitude Ï ampl. The magnitude and spacing of the oscillations depend on the value of the Peierls stress. A least-square curve fit of the β(Ï ampl) equation to experimental data taken of 99.999% pure aluminum monocrystals oriented for wave propagation along the [1â0â0] crystal axis yields the value 6.2âÃâ104âPa for the Peierls stress. The value is consistent with the smallest values reported in the literature for aluminum where for both theoretical and experimental studies the reported values range over three orders of magnitude.View full textDownload full textKeywordsPeierls stress, dislocation motion, acoustic harmonic generation, aluminum monocrystalsRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/09500839.2011.637977
