It is well known that the low-temperature plastic deformation of Body-Centred Cubic (BCC)
metals is controlled by the glide of 1/2[111] screw dislocations. Their low mobility is caused
by the delocalized nature of their cores which are extended into several planes in the zone
of the Burgers vector. This non-planar core spreading has been demonstrated by a number of
atomistic studies made in the last 46 years. However, attempts at experimental
observation have been hindered by the Eshelby twist effect. The aim of this work is to
investigate whether the edge and screw displacements associated with 1/2[111] screw
dislocations in BCC metals can be detected by optical sectioning in high-angle annular dark field
(HAADF) Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope (STEM) imaging conditions.
