Abstract

The anisotrpic resistivity of dislocations produced by deformation is measured in high-purity Al single crystals at liquid-helium temperature. A network of screw dislocations is produced by twisting a single-crystal cylindrical Al bar about the [111] direction which was along the axis of the bar. Resistivity parallel to the slip plane is measured by a mutual inductance method and along the crystal axis by a dc potentiometric method using Josephson junctions. Resistivities perpendicular to the specimen axis are found to be greater than those parallel to the specimen axis. The ratio Δρac/Δρdc (where Δρac and Δρdc are the resistivity increments along the directions perpendicular and parallel to specimen axis, respectively) is approximately equal to 1.29.
