The results showed that the martensitic transformation from β to α" occurs upon quenching after solution treatment between 960-1000 ℃. The antiphase boundary (APB)-like structure was observed clearly in the α" martensite plates. The APB-like contrasts exist along the (001) and (020) planes of α" martensite. This APB-like structure of α" martensite was identified as a kind of stacking fault with an APB-like morphology induced by martensitic transformation and not by order/disorder transition. During martensitic transformation, martensitic domains nucleate and grow, eventually encounter each other, resulting in the formation of the APBdike contrast.展开更多
