Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Polycrystalline samples and single crystals of YCr6Ge6 substituted by various elements were prepared, and their crystals structure and physical properties were characterized as well as microstructure observation by means of the transmission electron microscope (TEM). High resolution TEM observation reveals that the anti-phase domains exist in several nm intervals. The TEM observation, the electron diffraction experiments and STEM-EDS analyses indicate that the superstructure with c’ = c/2 is locally formed in the YCr6Ge6 single crystals.
