Abstract
Synchrotron X-ray topography has been used to study dislocation behavior ar ound notches in single-crystals of ice during in-situ deformation at a cons tant strain-rate. During deformation at - 8 degrees C a dislocation-deplete d zone (DDZ) formed above the notch while a vertical array of dislocations formed below the notch. Modeling the interaction between basal plane disloc ation loops and the notch stress field suggested that this DDZ arose from d islocations gliding completely through the specimen. Dislocation activity a round the notch at -8 degrees C was much greater than that observed at -40 degrees C and -60 degrees C. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights rese rved.
