Abstract

ABSTRACTA new phase with a 10H-type long-period stacking (LPS) structure was found in an Mg75Al10Y15 alloy annealed at 823 K. The LPS structure in the Mg75Al10Y15 alloy annealed at 823 K for 2 h has an ordered arrangement of L12-type structural Al6Y8 clusters on the two-dimensional plane parallel to the c-plane of hexagonal Mg lattice and a disordered arrangement along the c-axis, whereas a perfectly ordered structure along the c-axis, which has a period with two times of that of the 10H-type LPS structure, was established by annealing at 823 K for 24 h. The structural model of the ordered LPS phase is proposed by high-resolution images taken with a Cs-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope and also electron diffraction patterns.
