Abstract
The deformation behavior of bulk nanocrystalline Fe88Si 12 alloy has been investigated with compression tests at different strain rates. The activity volume v is 6b3 which indicates that the deformation mechanism is controlled by the dislocation slip. On the other hand, the critical size of the nanocrystalline Fe88Si12 alloy for deformation mechanism is calculated to be about 5.3 nm. It is smaller than the grain size of the nanocrystalline Fe88Si12 alloy (10 nm), which also indicates that deformation mechanism of the nanocrystalline Fe88Si12 alloy is controlled by the dislocation pile-up.
