Abstract:
Structurally complicated xi'- and xi-phases have been found, for the first time, in as-cast Al73Ni5Rh22 and Al75Ni15Rh10 alloys. The lattice parameters of these two phases were determined by means of electron diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy ( HREM). These two phases have similar orthorhombic structures but with different lattice parameters of a = 23.2 angstrom, b = 16.4 angstrom, c = 12.0 angstrom for the xi'-phase and a = 20.3 angstrom, b = 16.4 angstrom, c = 14.8 angstrom for the xi'-phase. A new two-dimensional domain-boundary network has also been observed in these two phases. Domain boundaries with normals closely parallel to the [001] direction are actually phason planes represented by a translation vector of r = (1/2)a + (1/2 tau)c in the xi'-phase and r = +/-(1/2 tau(2)) a + (tau/2)c in the xi'-phase, whereas the newly-found wide and zigzag boundaries perpendicular to the above set were attributed from the step-like boundary structures of domains related by a translation vector of r = (1/tau)((1/2)a + (1/2 tau)c). The structural difference between the two types of planar faults is discussed.
