Abstract

A peculiar martensite found in thin foils of a Ti5oNi49Fei shape memory alloy has been examined by transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction, which was entirely different from the R phase and the B19' and B19 martensites widely known so far in the Ti-Ni based alloys. The thin foil martensite is monoclinic with a=0.700nm, b=0.994nm, c=0.632nm and γ =94.4°. The lattice correspondence between the B2 parent phase and the martensite is as follows: <210>B2→ <100>M, <230>B2→ <010>m, <002>B2→ <001>m. The formation conditions and atom positions in the unit cell of the thin foil martensite are discussed.
