Abstract
Kinetics of the resoftening of quench-hardened copper was investigated, and the activation energy for the resoftening was found to be about 5 eV. Two possible mechanisms of quench hardening in copper, i. e. stacking fault tetrahedra and extended prismatic loops, were discussed based upon this observation with reference to the transmission electron microscopy of quenched copper.
