This document provides an overview of dislocations in face-centered cubic (FCC) metals. It discusses several types of dislocations that can occur in FCC metals including perfect dislocations with 1/2<110> Burgers vectors, Shockley partial dislocations formed by splitting a perfect dislocation, and Frank partial dislocations formed by inserting or removing a close-packed plane. The document also describes how Shockley partial dislocations can cross-slip between planes, the formation of Lomer-Cottrell locks at intersections of partial dislocations, and the nucleation of stacking fault tetrahedra in low stacking fault energy metals.
