Abstract

To explore the deformation mechanism of α-Ti with high oxygen doping, micro-pillars of single crystal with orientations of near 0°, 45°, and 90° inclined to c-axis were fabricated via focused ion beam (FIB) milling from a high oxygen content commercial purity Ti (CP–Ti). The micro-pillars were loaded under quasi-static compression. Post-mortem analysis reveals that only prismatic slip activated for 45° and 90° oriented samples with their critical resolved shear stress (CRSS) values of about 457 MPa and 596 MPa, and only {10–11}<c+a> the first-order pyramidal slip activated on the 0° sample with a CRSS of around 1019 MPa. The results suggest that the oxygen addition remarkably reduces the CRSS ratio between non-prismatic and prismatic slips of α-Ti. In addition, the results indicate that the Schmid law may not be applicable for α-Ti single crystal at micro-size level.
