Abstract
The ``steady‐state'' creep of Al2O3 single crystals was investigated. The experimental data are analyzed according to three mechanisms: the dislocation climb mechanism, the micro‐creep mechanism, and the Peierls stress mechanism. It is shown that the dislocation climb mechanism fits experimental data best. The expectation that Peierls stress mechanism is rate controlling in the ``steady‐state'' creep of Al2O3 is ungrounded.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
