Using the dislocation model of strain anisotropy in X-ray diffraction peak profile analysis it is shown that in nanocrystalline copper produced by inert gas condensation dislocations are present, at least, down to average grain sizes of the order of 20 nm. Based on the analysis of the dislocation contrast factors it is suggested that with decreasing grain size the proportion of Lomer-Cottrell type dislocations increases.
