Abstract

Single crystals of Ni3AI (1 at%Ta) with a compression axis of [123] were subject to creep at a stress of 550 MPa and a temperature of 520 °C. Slip trace and TEM microstructural observations reveal that primary octahedral slip is responsible for the primary creep. In the secondary stage, cube cross slip (010) is operative. There is no obvious sign of inverse creep.
