Abstract
Direct observations of dislocation arrangements about a range of microindentations into the [100] face of an Fe-3 wt. % Si single crystal have been accomplished. Dislocations of both large loop character initiated from the indenter and small loop character initiated as secondary reactions are found. Analysis of these allows the various contributions to the plastic strain gradient around the indentation to be assessed, with the experimental observations being reasonably consistent with continuum models.
