The plasticity of diamond
Aspects of the crystal structure of diamond, and its associated defects, have been considered with reference to the effect such characteristics might have on its mechanical properties. Also, established resolved shear stress models, which account for anisotropy in conventional Knoop indentation …

The influence of nitrogen on the plasticity of diamond
… plastic deformation of single crystal diamond and in particular to determine the effect that single substitutional nitrogen has on plasticity.Traditionally hardness tests in the form of Vickers or Knoop rigid indenters have been used to investigate the mechanical properties of materials which …
