Slip systems

 

The atomic plane along which the dislocations loops move is the slip plane ; the direction of the Burgers’s vector is the slip direction. A slip plane and its associated slip direction form a slip system. Usual slip planes are dense atomic planes, such as the basal plane in quartz (0001) or the (001) plane in olivine, and the slip direction is a dense atomic row within the slip plane.

 

In quartz the low-T slip system is (0001) <a>, and the high-T slip systems are (10-10) <a> and (10-11) <a> in addition to the low-T one :

 

Examine the consequences in a fabric diagram of quartz

 

 

In olivine, the HT-slip system is [100] (001) and [100] (010). In orthopyroxene, the HT-slip system is [001] (100).

 

 

Examine the consequences in fabric diagrams of olivine

4. Rôle of stress : multiplication of dislocations

 

No stress, no deformation. The role of stress is to multiply the dislocations. Essentially through the basic mechanism of the Franck-Read mill (Figure).

 

 

6. Rôle of temperature: increases the mobility of dislocations

 

 

The principal mechanism is, through the increasing mobility of point defects, to help the edges do climb and the screws to change their slip plane.
