| contents | Dislocations in ductile ceramics offer the potential for robust mechanical performance while unlocking versatile functional properties. Previous studies have been limited by small volumes with dislocations and/or low dislocation densities in ceramics. Here, we use Brinell ball scratching to create crack-free, large plastic zones, offering a simple and effective method for dislocation engineering at room temperature. Using MgO, we tailor high dislocation densities up to ~10^15 m^-2. We characterize the plastic zones by chemical etching, electron channeling contrast imaging, and scanning transmission electron microscopy, and further demonstrate that crack initiation and propagation in the plastic zones with high-density dislocations can be completely suppressed. The residual stresses in the plastic zones were analyzed using high-resolution electron backscatter diffraction. With the residual stress being subsequently relieved via thermal annealing while retaining the high-density dislocations, we observe the cracks are no longer completely suppressed, but the pure toughening effect of the dislocations remains evident. |
