Abstract
An etch-pit technique has been used to study the dislocation distribution in partially plastically bent silver chloride single crystals. A macroscopically uniform distribution of dislocations was found in the plastically deformed part except in a narrow strip containing the neutral plane of bending where the density of dislocations changed fairly sharply to a lower value in agreement with a model proposed by Nye et al. (1957).
