corresponding (AĪ±, BĪ²,...) or a
Shockley partial otherwise (AĪ², AĪ³,...). Vectors made from two Greek letters describe stair-rod dislocations. Using Thompson notation, Burgers vectors can be added to describe other dislocations and mechanisms. For example, two Shockley partial dislocations can be added to form a perfect dislocation: AĪ² + Ī²C = AC. It is necessary that the interior letters of a given operation match, but many can be added in sequence to describe more complex mechanisms.

partials of each extended dislocation now form a stair-rod partial. This structure leads to reduced mobility of the dislocations as the core structure is non-planar (meaning it doesnāt cross along the face of the tetrahedron). This reduction of mobility transforms the Lomer-Cottrell dislocation into an obstacle for other dislocations, thus strengthening the material.

When forming stacking faults, the partial dislocations reach an equilibrium when the repulsive energy between partial dislocations matches the attractive energy of the stacking fault. This means that higher stacking fault energy materials, i.e. those with high shear modulus and large
Burgers vectors,

For FCC crystals, Thompson tetrahedrons or
Thompson notation are an invented notation for more easily describing partial dislocations. In a given unit cell, mark point A at the origin, point B at a/2 , point C at a/2, and point D at a/2--these points form the vertices of a tetrahedron. Then, mark the

The Lomer-Cottrell dislocation forms via a more complex dislocation reaction. For example, consider two extended dislocations: DB = DĪ³ + Ī³B and BC = BĪ“ + Ī“C. When they meet, it is more energetically favorable to form a single dislocation, DC = DB + BC = DĪ³ + Ī³B + BĪ“ + Ī“C = DĪ³ + Ī³Ī“ + Ī“C. The trailing

The more easily a dislocation can cross slip, the more freely the dislocation can move around obstaclesāthis makes work hardening more difficult. Thus, materials that allow easy cross slip (high stacking fault energy) will see less work hardening and strengthening from methods like solid-solution

Any combination of Roman letters describes a member of the {111} slip planes in an FCC crystal. A vector made from two Roman letters describes the
Burgers vector of a perfect dislocation. If the vector is made from a Roman letter and a Greek letter, then it is a Frank partial if the letters are

to reduce the distance between them, so partial dislocations with low stacking fault energies will inherently be more difficult to bring together and thus more difficult to cross slip. Conversely, high stacking fault energy materials will be easier to cross slip.
