Abstract
Phase transformations found in Mg/sub 3/Cd foils are described. In very thin foils of Mg/sub 3/Cd (less than or equal to 500 A), the off-stoichiometric B19 structure (normally based on MgCd) is produced rapidly under high electron flux conditions in a transmission electron microscope. This phase is thought to be the most inherently stable at this composition but is prevented from nucleating in bulk or thick specimens by the high strain energy involved in the transformation.
