摘要
High temperature compressive tests were carried out on 纬-LiAlO2 single crystals along their [1 0 0] and [0 0 1] directions. It was found that the LiAlO2 crystal deformed via a twinning process while compressed along [1 0 0]. The twinning elements for the observed deformation twin are summarized as K1: , K2: , 畏1: , 畏2: , and s = 0.305. No dislocation slips were observed associated with the twinning. When the crystal was compressed along [0 0 1], no twins but cracks were observed.
