Orientation relationship and structure of lithium precipitates in MgO single crystals

Abstract
Lithium precipitates are obtained by thermal annealing of magnesium oxide single crystals implanted with this metal. Those under 200 Å size have an unusual face-centred cubic structure (a = 4.4 Å) and are in simple orientation with the matrix. For a size above 400 Å, the structure is body-centred cubic (a = 3.51 Å) and the orientation with respect to the matrix is : (011) Li // (111) MgO and [111] Li // [011] MgO
