The transitional state of ordering in the long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structure in Mg-Al-Gd alloy has been investigated by scanning transmission electron microscopy. It is found that the domains are the origin of observed…
To investigate the formation of Mg-based long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structure, we systematically study the preference of the short-range order (SRO) in metastable disordered phases of Mg-RE-Zn (RE = Y, La, Er, Ho, Dy, Tb) and…
We propose structure models of the unique long-period stacking/order (LPSO) phases formed in the Mg-Zn-RE alloys, based on Z-contrast scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) observations and first-principles calculations. The LPSO…
A series of structural polytypes formed in an Mg-1at.%Zn-2at.%Y alloy has been identified, which are reasonably viewed as long-period stacking derivatives of the hcp Mg structure with alternate AB stacking of the close-packed atomic layers.…
We investigate the formation of long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structure for Mg-Y-Zn ternary alloys based on the short-range order (SRO) tendency of energetically competitive disordered phases. We find that unisotropic SRO tendencies…
In order to clarify thermodynamic stability of Mg-based long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structure, we systematically study energetic preference for alloys on multiple stacking with different composition for random mixing of constituent…
The origin of the phase stability of 18$R$ Mg-Zn-Y alloys with a long-period stacking order (LPSO) is studied using first-principles calculations. We calculate the heat of formation as a function of the number of Zn vacancies to discuss the…
Mg alloys containing long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures exhibit remarkably high tensile yield strength and ductility. They have been found in a variety of ternary Mg systems of the general form Mg-XL-XS, where XL and XS are…
Solute segregation plays an important role in formation of long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structure in Mg-M-RE (M: Zn, Ni etc., RE: Y, Gd, etc.) alloy systems. In this work, the planar segregation in Mg-Al-Gd alloy is characterized by…
Cooperative growth of the structure units (SUs) in a 14H type long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structure has been observed, and there is no obvious accumulation of transformation strain at the growth fronts. The atomic structures at this…
In this study, we investigated the oxidation of the Mg-11Y-1Al alloy at 500{\deg}C in an Ar-20%O2 environment. Multiscale analysis showed the network-like long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase transformed into needle-like LPSO and…
The chemical enrichment/ordering of solute atoms in Mg matrix are crucial to understand the formation mechanism of long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures. In this study, three-dimensional distribution of solute elements in an…
A class of Fe-Mn-Si-based alloys exhibits a reversible martensitic transformation between the $\gamma$ phase with a face-centered cubic~(fcc) structure and an $\epsilon$ phase with a hexagonal close-packed (hcp) structure. During the…
This paper presents a new highly stable periodic approximant to the Al-based F-type icosahedral quasicrystals, i-Al-Pd-TM (TM=transition metals). The structure of this intermetallic Al-Pd-Cr-Fe compound is determined ab initio using…
Solute clusters in long period stacking order (LPSO) alloys play a key role in their idiosyncratic plastic behavior, for example kink formation and kink strengthening. Identifying atomistic details of cluster structures is a prerequisite…
Enhancing properties and performances of aluminium alloys by a control of their solidification is pivotal in automotive and aerospace industries. The fundamental role of the structure-diffusion relationship is investigated for Al-Mg-Si…
The Mg-Y-Zn magnesium alloy system is commonly recognized for its remarkable combination of high strength and ductility, achieved even with minimal amounts of alloying elements. This exceptional performance is attributed to its unique…
We resolve issues that have plagued reliable prediction of relative phase stability for solid-solutions and compounds. Due to its commercially important phase diagram, we showcase Al-Li system because historically density-functional theory…
In certain naturally aged aluminum alloys, significant strengthening can be obtained due to the decomposition of a super-saturated solid solution into clusters. The origins of such strengthening remain unclear due to the challenge of…
We present recent Monte Carlo results on surfaces of bcc-structured binary alloys which undergo an order-disorder phase transformation in the bulk. In particular, we discuss surface order and surface induced disorder at the bulk transition…
