Stacking faults and phase transformations in silicon nitride
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 November 1998
Abstract
From observations of extended dislocation nodes in β silicon nitride, possible stacking fault structures in the basal plane of this compound have been investigated. It has been found that stacking fault structure is locally analogous to α silicon nitride. A phase transformation α to β or β to α can also be achieved by cooperative shear of partial dislocations with $1/3\langle1\bar{1}00\rangle$ Burgers vectors.
