Materials Science 2018-01-09 v1

Abstract

The structure of a unique platelet zone with a three close-packed layer thickness, which occurred in a Mg-1at.%Zn-2at.%Gd alloy annealed at low temperatures (<~500K), has been determined based on scanning transmission electron microscopy and first principles calculations.
