Orientation Relationships and Interfaces Between Low Symmetry Phases in The Yttria-Alumina System
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Interphase boundaries and orientation relationships for yttria - yttrium-aluminum monoclinic and yttrium-aluminum monoclinic - yttrium-aluminum perovskite eutectics were observed by standard and high resolution TEM techniques. Three and five orientation relationships were found for each system, respectively. These eutectics all had a monoclinic phase and therefore had little potential for high symmetry overlap. In many cases low index planes with similer spacings or spacing multiples were parallel. However, presence of a monoclinic phase made definition of a three-dimensional low index near-CSL very difficult, so a combination of planes corresponding to reciprocal-space directions and zones corresponding to real-space directions were often needed for a geometric description of the orientation relationship. In general, two planes and the real-space direction corresponding to the zone for these planes described the orientation relationships. The disregistry between reciprocal-space coincidence sites was not localized by dislocations large enough to be visible.
