Abstract

The Peierls-Nabarro barrier and stress of thea/2〈111〉 edge dislocation on {112} and {110} plane inα-Fe at O K is calculated within the Peierls-Nabarro model. The method proposed by Nabarro is used, however, the sine force law is replaced by more general force laws based on two central interionic potentials inα-Fe. The values of the Peierls-Nabarro stress corresponding to one of the chosen interionic potentials, 3·5×10−4 μ and 1×10−4 μ on {112} plane (in the twinning direction) and on {110} plane, respectively, seem to be good estimates of the stress necessary to move edge dislocations inα-Fe at O K.
