Lath martensite plasticity enabled by apparent sliding of substructure boundaries

Lath martensite is widely present in advanced high strength steels as the key strengthening phase. Unexpectedly high ductility of lath martensite has been reported in the literature in both single-phase and multi-phase steels, however, without systematic identification of the underlying plasticity m...
