An apparatus has been developed for performing compression deformation experiments on oriented metallic single crystals to provide data for validation of 3-D dislocation dynamics simulations. The experiment is performed under conditions that allow unconstrained motion of the upper and lower compression platen, and thus a relatively uniform state of axial stress is maintained during the deformation. Experiments have been performed on high-purity Mo single crystal and polycrystalline Cu. Various aspects of the experimental procedures and results are presented. Possible usages of the experimental data for the validation of 3-D dislocation dynamics simulations are discussed.
