Zigzag Dissociation Mode of 〈c + a〉 Dislocations on the Plane in Magnesium Alloys

Figure 2

(a, b) The equivalent (corrugated) dissociation modes of slip system. Orange and green spheres indicate type A and B atoms, respectively. Blue dashed line and white (black) solid line denote the full 〈c + a〉 dislocation and the partial dislocations, respectively; black dash circle denotes the stable stacking fault position of type A and B atoms. (a) Equivalent dissociation. (b) Corrugated dissociation.
