Jogs and kinks are atomic scale changes in direction of a dislocation line. Jogs are out of the slip plane and kinks lie in the dislocations slip plane. For the edge dislocation shown, the jogs are of ...

The diagram shows the effect of 'sliding' an Edge (a), Screw (b), or Mixed (c) dislocation completely across a slip plane in the crystal. Each dislocation has the same effect as it moves completely ...
