BRITTLE TO DUCTILE TRANSITION IN SILICON.
The brittle to ductile transition in silicon is studied by four-point bend testing of specimens containing controlled flaws. A characteristic increase in fracture stress is observed at the transition temperature which is directly correlated to the generation and motion of dislocations at the crack t...
