Abstract

Synchrotron white beam x-ray topography has been used to study dislocation configurations induced in InSb single crystals by three point bending at temperatures above the brittle to ductile transition point. Semi-hexagonal dislocation loops with one long screw segment and two outcropping 60° segments, single 60° B(g) dislocation kinks on screw dislocations, and screw dislocation dipoles were observed. The relationship between these observed defect structures and the mobilities of A(g), B(g), and screw dislocations in InSb, which appear to control the plastic behavior of crystals with the sphalerite structure, is discussed. Dislocation interactions and their role in the plastic deformation process are also addressed.
