The effect of lattice misfit on the mechanical properties of L12-strengthened medium-entropy alloys with low stacking fault energy by Bingkai Wang, Huijie Wei, Ping Huang, Fei Wang

“…The reason for this is that the large amount of high stress field generated by large lattice misfit at the phase boundary helps to hinder dislocation movement, but it can also cause stress to be too concentrated during early deformation, leading to fracture. Under the premise of low stacking fault energy, partial dislocations can shear L12 precipitation through other coherent interfaces and form stacking faults. …”
