Abstract

A study of the thermally activated tensile deformation of gold single crystals has been conducted between 4.2 and 473 K. The activation energy in terms of a single process analysis, AG0, at zero effective stress was found to be 1.5 eV and was sensitive to the effective stress. From the strain dependence of the zero temperature effective stress it was concluded that the barriers giving rise to the thermally activated deformation process increase in density during deformation and are probably the forest dislocations.
