Abstract
The motion of Frenkel–Kontorova dislocations in the single crystals of aluminum at low temperatures has been studied, by means of the computer simulation. It is shown that the dislocation movement is realized by the quantum tunneling of the kinks of dislocations through the Peierls barriers. It is shown that the action of the Peierls high barrier is analogous to the action of low temperatures, and if the Peierls barrier overcome, the dislocation moves unevenly, accelerating under the action of the Peierls barrier and slowing down after overcoming the Peierls barrier. Based on the numerical experiment, the mean free path of dislocation, the distance between the Peierls potential barriers and the width of the Peierls barrier are calculated. The computed values correspond to the real values.
