We present a phonon dynamics-based finite-temperature coarse-grained (FT-CG) atomistic approach for characterizing the kink-controlled dislocation dynamics in high-Peierls-barrier materials. The applicability of it is demonstrated through simulating the motion of a ~ 3 µm-long dislocation in a bcc iron sample containing ~ 230 million atoms. Cross-kink and debris are found on a µm-long dislocation at a lower stress than that on a nm-long dislocation. They are largely promoted by high-frequency/short-wavelength phonons. FT-CG is shown to be a first model of its kind that can predict the mobility of a µm-long dislocation without smearing out the atomic-level kink dynamics on it. Graphical abstract
