Abstract

Body-centred cubic(BCC)metals are known to have unstable intrinsic stacking faults and high resis-tance to deformation twinning,which can strongly influence their twinning behaviour.Though twinning mechanisms of BCC metals have been investigated for more than 60 years,the atomistic level dynam-ics of twinning remains under debate,especially regarding its impact on competition between twinning and slip.Here,we investigate the atomistic level dynamics of twinning in BCC tungsten(W)nanowires using in situ nanomechanical testing.Quantitative experimental studies directly visualize that deforma-tion twins in W nanowires have a minimum size of six-layers and grow in increments of approximately three-layers at a time,in contrast to the layer-by-layer growth of deformation twins in face-centred cu-bic metals.These unique twinning dynamics induces a strong competition with ordinary dislocation slip,as exhibited by a size-dependent dislocation-to-twin transition in W nanowires,with a transition size of~40 nm.Our work provides physical insight into the dynamics of twinning at the atomic level,as well as a size-dependent dislocation-twinning competition,which have important implications for the plastic deformation in a broad class of BCC metals and alloys.
