Crystal Structure, Phase Stability and Plastic Deformation Behavior of Ti-rich Ni3(Ti, Nb) Single Crystals with Various Long-Period Ordered Structures.
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2011
Abstract
In Ni-Ti-Nb ternary system, there are some geometrically close-packed (GCP) phases with long-period stacking sequences of a close-packed plane (CPP). Among them, our focus is on the Ni3(Ti0.90Nb0.10) crystals with Pb3Ba-type rhombohedral structure with nine-fold stacking sequence. Compression tests were conducted using the single crystals and the temperature and orientation dependences of plastic deformation behavior were investigated in comparison with those of D024-Ni3Ti crystals with the four-fold stacking sequence. The K-W locking of screw dislocation was found to occur not only in the compounds such as Ni3Al and Ni3Ti with a relatively small unit cell, but also even in complex compounds with longer-period stacking structures by slip on the common CPP in the GCP structures.
