The deformation fields near fatigue crack tips grown in hydrogen and in air were measured using high-energy x-ray diffraction. A larger magnitude of elastic strain was observed in the hydrogen case compared to the air case. The magnitude of elastic strain was quantified through an effective crack tip stress intensity factor. The dislocation profile ahead of the crack was probed via x-ray line broadening and electron back-scatter diffraction was used to assess the crack path (intergranular vs. transgranular). Ahead of the crack tip grown in hydrogen, an order of magnitude lower dislocation density, compared to a baseline density far from the crack, was observed. This decrease in dislocation density was not observed in the air case. These differences are discussed in terms of two leading hydrogen embrittlement mechanisms, Hydrogen Enhanced Localized Plasticity (HELP) and Hydrogen Enhanced Decohesion (HEDE). We have observed a decrease in transgranular cohesion (transgranular HEDE), as well as an increase in intergranular fracture. The measurements of dislocation activity support a model of a decrease in intergranular cohesion (intergranular HEDE) which is likely facilitated by the HELP mechanism. This suggests that the increase in fatigue crack growth rate is due to a sum of the two effects of hydrogen, in which the crack grows faster in the transgranular fracture mode and faster due to an increase in a new mode of intergranular fracture.
