Dislocation pinning plays a vital role in the plastic behaviour of a crystalline solid. Here we report the first observation of the damped oscillations of a mobile dislocation after it gets pinned at an obstacle in the presence of a constant static shear load. These oscillations are found to be inertial, instead of forced as obtained in the studies of internal friction of solid. The rate of damping enables us to determine the effective mass of the dislocation. Nevertheless, the observed relation between the oscillation frequency and the link length is found to be anomalous, when compared with the theoretical results in the framework of Koehlers vibrating string model. We assign this anomaly to the improper boundary conditions employed in the treatment. Finally, we propose that the inertial oscillations may offer a plausible explanation of the electromagnetic emissions during material deformation and seismic activities.
We observe the dynamics of a single magnetic vortex in the presence of a random array of pinning sites. At low excitation amplitudes, the vortex core gyrates about its equilibrium position with a frequency that is characteristic of a single pinning s
Friedel oscillation is a well-known wave phenomenon, which represents the oscillatory response of electron waves to imperfection. By utilizing the pseudospin-momentum locking in gapless graphene, two recent experiments demonstrate the measurement of
The use of coherent x-ray beams has been greatly developing for the past decades. They are now used by a wide scientific community to study biological materials, phase transitions in crystalline materials, soft matter, magnetism, strained structures,
We calculate the sink strength of dislocations and toroidal absorbers using Object Kinetic Monte Carlo and compare with the theoretical expressions. We get good agreement for dislocations and loop-shaped absorbers of 3D migrating defects, provided th
We develop a non-singular theory of three-dimensional dislocation loops in a particular version of Mindlins anisotropic gradient elasticity with up to six length scale parameters. The theory is systematically developed as a generalization of the clas
