Anisotropy in the plastic flow properties of single-crystal alpha titanium determined from micro-cantilever beams

Single-crystal micro-cantilever beams were manufactured from a polycrystalline commercially pure Ti sample using a focused ion beam. The cantilevers were approximately 5 μm wide and 30 μm long. A nano-indenter was then used to conduct micro-bending tests. Slip systems are selectively activated in th...
