Deformation twinning in single crystal alumina induced by Vickers indentation

The research has been analyzed by using scanning electron and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM).To research microstructure in single crystal alumina induced by Vickers indentation and the effect of alumina microstructure induced by deformation twinning.
Sapphire is a kind of alumina single crystal called Corundum. It has fine machinery, optical, chemistry and anti-radiationary nature and been used widespread in industry world in recent years.
Mechanical twinning is the main mode of plastic deformation. It has two types (1) basal twinning (2) rhombohedral twinning. When author pressed 20 N on (0001) plane, it produces B (0001), R1 ( 102) and R1 ¡¨ ( 104) in cross- section. But when pressing 20 N in (1 10) plane, it produces B (0001), B 1 ( 101) and R2 ( 012) in cross-section.
In order to understand the role of pressure direction in twinning at room temperature, this research will discuss what effects will be produced twinning microstructure of alumina sample and derivation of dislocation microstructure by using scanning electron and transmission electron microscopy.
