Interstitial-mediated dislocation climb and the weakening of particle-reinforced alloys under irradiation
Dislocations can climb out of their glide plane by absorbing (or emitting) point defects [vacancies and self-interstitial atoms (SIAs)]. In contrast with conservative glide motion, climb relies on the point defects' thermal diffusion and hence operates on much longer timescales, leading to some...
