Atomic-scale avalanche along a dislocation in a random alloy

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

The propagation of dislocations in random crystals is evidenced to be governed by atomic-scale avalanches whose the extension in space and the time intermittency characterizingly diverge at the critical threshold. Our work is the very first atomic-scale evidence that the paradigm of second order phase transitions applies to the depinning of elastic interfaces in random media.
