Diffusional-displacive transformation enables formation of long-period stacking order in magnesium
Abstract Mg is the most important lightweight engineering alloy enabling future weight-reduced and fuel-saving engineering solutions. Yet, Mg is soft. Long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures in Mg alloys have unique crystal structures, characterized by both complex chemical and stacking order...

Abstract Mg is the most important lightweight engineering alloy enabling future weight-reduced and fuel-saving engineering solutions. Yet, Mg is soft. Long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) structures in Mg alloys have unique crystal structures, characterized by both complex chemical and stacking order.

Here we report that Y/Zn enriched Guinier-Preston (GP) zones observed in a lean Mg-Y-Zn model alloy are precursors of early stage LPSO structures. We provide evidence of a new type of phase transformation mechanism which comprises the diffusional formation of Y/Zn enriched GP zones and their subsequent shear transformation into LPSO building blocks.
