Growth and Facet Orientations in Single-Phase TiAl Single Crystals

Abstract
Single crystals of single-phase TiAl alloy (Ti-56 at. % Al) have been grown at lOmm/h solidification rate in an ASGAL FZ-SS35W Optical Floating Zone Furnace. The orientations of the resulting single crystals have been determined using the Laue X-ray diffraction, and Electron Backscattering Pattern (EBSP) methods. A correlation between orientations of the crystal growth and grown-in facets has been established.
