Abstract: | The ordering mechanism of long-period superstructures (LPSs) in Al-rich TiAl alloys has been investigated by high-resolution
transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The LPSs are classified in terms of arrangements of base clusters with different
shapes and compositions formed in Ti-rich (002) layers of L10-TiAl matrix: square Ti4Al, fat rhombus Ti3Al, and lean rhombus Ti2Al type clusters. The HRTEM observations revealed that antiphase boundaries of long-range-ordered LPS domains and short-range-ordered
microdomains are constructed by various space-filling arrangements of the base clusters. Such a microscopic property characterized
by the base clusters and their arrangements is markedly analogous to that of the
* special-point ordering alloys such as Ni-Mo.
This article is based on a presentation given in the symposium entitled “Materials Behavior: Far from Equilibrium” as part
of the Golden Jubilee Celebration of Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, which occurred December 15–16, 2006 in Mumbai, India.
