Abstract | Stress-relaxation experiments were performed on nanotwinned Cu to characterize the twin size-dependence of the activation volume and mobile dislocation density. We find that the variation of activation volume as a function of twin lamellae thickness can be captured well by a Hall-Petch-type relation. This structure size-dependence is interpreted to arise from a transition of the rate-controlling mechanism from intra-twin to twin boundary-mediated processes with decreasing twin thickness. Furthermore, we find that the exhaustion rate of mobile dislocations reduces with decreasing twin thickness. Such a twin size-dependence is attributed to the increased strain-hardening rate associated with a high density of coherent twin boundaries. Our results demonstrate that twin boundary-mediated dislocation processes can effectively promote the strain hardening and preserve mobile dislocations, leading to ultrahigh strength while retaining ductility in nanotwinned Cu.
