Abstract: | The in situ tensile straining of cross-sectional specimens inside a TEM is intrinsically very difficult to perform despite its obvious interest to study interfaces of surface treated materials. We have combined a FIB-based method to produce H-bar specimens of a nitrided Ti-6Al-4V alloy and in situ TEM straining stage, to successfully study the plastic deformation mechanisms that are activated close to the nitrided surface in the Ti-based alloy. |
