    Heroes of Dislocation Science Here are some notes about some of the (early) "Heroes" of Dislocation Science. It is a purely subjective collection and does not pretend to do justice to the history of the field or the people involved. I will not even remotely try to establish a "ranking", and that's why names appear in alphabetical order. To put things in perspective, let's start with a short history of the invention of the dislocation, followed by their actual discovery. Dislocations were invented long before they were discovered. They came into being in 1934 by hard thinking and not by observation. As ever so often, three people came up with the concept independently and pretty much at the same time. The three inventors were Egon Orowan, Michael Polanyi and Geoffrey Taylor. What they invented was the edge dislocation; the general concept of dislocations had to wait a little longer. Of course, they all knew a few things that gave them the right idea. They knew about atoms and crystals since X- ray diffraction was already in place since 1912. They also knew that plastic deformation occurred by slip on special lattice planes if some shear stress was large enough, and they knew that the stress needed for slip was Advanced far lower than what one would need if complete planes would be slipping on top of each other. They were also aware of the work of others. Guys with big names then and still today, like T. v. Kármán, Jakow Iljitsch Frenkel, or Ludwig Prandtl, had put considerable effort into theories dealing, in modern parlor, with the collective movements of atoms in crystals.

    Memorial Tributes: Volume 20 Copyright National Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved. Memorial Tributes: Volume 20 ANTHONY KELLY 1929–2014 Elected in 1986 “For pioneering research in the development of strong solids and composite materials.” BY ARCHIE HOWIE SUBMITTED BY THE NAE HOME SECRETARY ANTHONY KELLY, a seminal figure in the development of composite materials and a reforming vice chancellor at the Uni- versity of Surrey, died on June 3, 2014, at the age of 85. Tony, as he was generally known, was born in Hillingdon, West London, on January 25, 1929. His father, Group Captain Vincent Gerald French Kelly, who was of Irish descent, taught mathematics to pilots in the education service of the Royal Air Force. Tony’s scientific promise became apparent at the age of 13 in Presentation College, Reading, when he successfully corrected a physics teacher’s work on the blackboard. Since Presentation College did not have a sixth form, he had to develop his own habit for intensive study and teach himself enough physics, chemistry, geography, and geology to take the University Intermediate Examination and win an open scholarship in science at the University of Reading. Tony’s doctoral research was carried out between 1950 and 1953 at the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge, in Sir Lawrence Bragg’s famous crystallography group. Although his formal supervisor was W.H. Taylor and he had intermittent guid- ance from Bragg, his main mentor was Peter Hirsch, who had been largely responsible for setting up the x-ray microbeam equipment and exploring its use to investigate the structure of deformed metals.

  • Lawrence Bragg's Interest in the Deformation of Metals and 1950
    Bragg centennial Acta Crystallographica Section A Foundations of Lawrence Bragg’s interest in the deformation of Crystallography metals and 1950–1953 in the Cavendish – a ISSN 0108-7673 worm’s-eye view Received 24 May 2012 Accepted 2 August 2012 Anthony Kelly Churchill College, University of Cambridge, Storeys Way, Cambridge CB3 0DS, United Kingdom. Correspondence e-mail: [email protected] This paper recounts the atmosphere in the Cavendish Laboratory during Lawrence Bragg’s triumphant final years there through the eyes and the work of a young research student, and hence reflects some measure of Bragg’s personality. The opportunity is taken to deal in detail with Bragg’s contribution to our understanding of crystal plasticity, which is seldom described, being overshadowed by his many superb contributions to the determination of crystal structure. Bragg produced in 1940–1942, through his development of the bubble model of a crystal structure, the first demonstration of how crystal dislocations move. His suggestion of the use of microbeams led rather directly to the development of modern thin-film transmission electron microscopy. 1. Introduction Taylor was common at the time. I was assigned to this group, I believe, because when interviewed by Schonberg earlier in William Lawrence Bragg (WLB) came to Cambridge from the 1950 I had suggested that I was interested in sub-grains in National Physical Laboratory (NPL) in October 1938, metals and their analogues as Bitter patterns – in those days, succeeding Rutherford, the New Zealander, as he had done at prospective research students were expected to suggest a Manchester. He had been at the NPL only from November problem on which he or she would like to work (Kelly, 2005).

    Interview Professor Michael Whelan Page 1 of 7 Other Research Projects: Materials Research Activities Professor Michael Whelan Interviewed by Bernadette Bensaude- Vincent, Oxford Materials Department, December 12, 2002 Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent (BBV) - Could you tell a few details about your own work on the experimental discovery of dislocations in 1956? Michael Whelan (MW) - In the 1930s there was no experimental evidence for dislocations but theoretical predictions were built up about the way dislocations behave. What was really missing was any direct observations of dislocations, although slip lines on the surface of metals had been observed by optical microscopy. The question was how could that occurat the sort of stresses that were observed experimentally? If you work out the stress required to push one layer over another as a whole, it is much higher than it would be if you introduce the concept of a dislocation. A dislocation is like a wrinkle in a carpet; Peter Hirsch used this image. When the concept of a dislocation came to the forefront with many papers about the behaviour of dislocations, there were unbelievers, among the Russians in particular. At the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge in the group of W.L. Bragg they had suggested simple X-ray experiments to detect the small subgrains that were hypothetically formed in the plastic deformation of metals. BBV - When did you start? MW - I started in 1954 with Peter Hirsch. He was a post-doc in Cambridge. He had got his PhD about 1950 using X-rays to study the textures of metals. They had developed a microbeam X-ray technique under the supervision of Professor W.L.

  • Transmission Electron Microscopy of Carbon: a Brief History
    Journal of C Carbon Research Review Transmission Electron Microscopy of Carbon: A Brief History Peter J. F. Harris Electron Microscopy Laboratory, Department of Chemistry, University of Reading, Whiteknights, Reading RG6 6AF, UK; [email protected]; Tel.: +44-118-378-6118 Received: 21 December 2017; Accepted: 8 January 2018; Published: 12 January 2018 Abstract: Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has been used in the study of solid carbon since the 1940s. A number of important forms of carbon have been discovered through the use of TEM, and our understanding of the microstructure of carbon has largely been gained through the application of TEM and associated techniques. This article is an attempt to present an historical review of the application of TEM to carbon, from the earliest work to the present day. The review encompasses both graphitic carbon and diamond, and spectroscopic techniques are covered, as well as imaging. In the final section of the review, the impact of aberration-corrected TEM on current carbon research is highlighted. Keywords: transmission electron microscopy; graphite; diamond; graphene; carbon nanotubes 1. Introduction Solid carbon exists in a huge variety of different forms, including graphite, diamond, graphene, nanotubes, glassy carbon, coke, and char. Much of what we know about the microstructure of these materials has come from the application of transmission electron microscopy. While X-ray diffraction can provide more accurate crystallographic information, and spectroscopic techniques can be used to determine the overall order of the carbon and the sp2/sp3 ratio, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has an unrivalled ability to reveal the microscopic structure, potentially down to the atomic level.
