Solute-Dislocation Binding and Solute Clustering as a Mechanism for Room Temperature Ductility and Formability of Mg Alloys
Non-basal slips are important of magnesium. Alloying elements can activate the non-basal slip by reducing critical resolved shear stress anisotropy among slip planes, and the optimum alloy contents in bina...

The Origin of Activation of Non-basal Slip in Mg-Ce Dilute Alloy: An Atomistic Simulation Study
Mg-Ce alloys have been attracting attention because a small amount of Ce addition improves the ductility of Mg at room temperature. When Ce is added, non-basal slip related to improved ductility has been obser...
