Abstract:The recovery of the electrical resistivity increment produced by tensile plastic deformation of Cd, In, and Pb, and by compressive plastic deformation of In and Sn has been investigated. The isochronal recovery of Cd has many similarities to the recovery after thermal neutron irradiation, with recovery stages at 4 to 10 °K, 10 to 20 °K, and 60 to 75 °K. Recovery stages were observed for Pb at 9, 70, 160, and 280 °K. The 70 °K stage is attributed to migration of intrinsic defects, perhaps self‐interstitials, th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
