The compressive deformation behavior in micro areas of industrial pure titanium was investigated, by using a new method in which the deformation constraints from the neighboring areas were reduced by fabricating micro parallel grooves or V-shaped cross-section grooves, by focused ion beam machining. Uniaxial compression test was performed in the direction parallel to the grooves, and the deformation behavior in the areas between the grooves was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The parallel grooves were fabricated to across the deformation twin that appeared by pre-compression, and then the influence of deformation constraint on twinning was discussed. Meanwhile, the V-shaped cross-section grooves were fabricated on several grains to examine the crystal orientation dependency of the deformation of the micro areas. In both cases, the possibility was found to change the primary deformation mechanism in the areas by fabricating micro grooves.
