Abstract
There are experimental and theoretical arguments to indicate that the problem of the Peierls stress in f.c.c. metals can be due to the exist ence of several kinds of kink pair formation (KPF) mechanisms, present ing very different activation energies. Some interaction mechanisms be tween the intrinsic point defects (vacancies and self-interstitials) a nd the split dislocation cores could be responsible for these differen t KPF mechanisms.
