Abstract  Grain boundary hardening and slip transmission across grain boundary are two important aspects in deformation of materials. Using depth--sensing indentation, a pop--in phenomenon induced by grain boundaries has been observed in polycrystalline niobium. This phenomenon is about a sudden displacement jump observed near a grain boundary segment at a larger force than the initial elasto--plastic pop--in, which is observed not to be affected by grain boundary. The experimental results show that this pop--in effect has a close relationship with misorientations of the grain boundary. Further studies found that no evident change of grain boundary hardness was observed even though there existed grain boundary pop--in.
