Abstract
Amplitude and temperature dependences of internal friction in molybdenum single crystals of the orientations <100>, <110>, <111>, <941> are studied. The residual resistance ratio of the samples is (1-2)x105. The measurements are carried out at the frequency of 88 kHz in the temperature range 5.9 -- 300 K. It has been established that at high temperatures the amplitude-dependent internal friction is due to the process of thermally activated dislocation unpinning from the pinning centres. At low temperatures a maximum is found in the amplitude dependences the height of which decreases with decreasing temperature, but its position does not depend on the temperature. In the same amplitude range a saturation region appears in the modulus defect amplitude dependences. Such a behaviour of the high-amplitude internal friction at low temperatures can not be explained in the framework of the theories present.
