The energy barrier for homogeneous cross-slip of a screw dislocation in face-centered cubic (FCC) nickel is calculated using atomistic simulations as a function of the Escaig stress on the glide plane, the Escaig stress on the cross-slip plane, and the Schmid stress on the cross-slip plane. Two cross-slip mechanisms, Friedel-Escaig (FE) and Fleischer, are examined and their energy barriers are calculated for a large number of stress combinations. For each mechanism, the energy barrier as a function of three stress components can be reduced into a one-dimensional function of an effective stress. The stress domains in which FE and Fleischer mechanisms operate respectively are determined. Additionally, the FE mechanism dominates when the Escaig stress on the glide plane (in the direction that reduces the stacking fault width) is the largest stress component. Increasing the Schmid stress and Escaig stress (in the direction that expands the stacking fault width) on the cross slip plane promotes the Fleischer mechanism. The cross slip energy barrier functions obtained here can be used as input functions for computing cross slip rates in mesoscale dislocation dynamics simulations.
