5.1.7.3 RSR 197 -- Solution Heat Treated, Quenched, and aged at 870 C for 1 Hour, Furnace Cooled to 760 C and Aged for 100 Hours at 760 C. Even after aging at 870 C for one hour, the D022 and Dla phases readily form when aged at a lower temperature. The dark field images shown in Figures 5.29a and 5.29b are B = [001] dark field images taken using both 1/4(420) (Figure 5.29a) and 1/5(420) (Figure 5.29b) reflections. 5.1.7.4 RSR 185 -- Solution Heat Treated at 1315 C and Water Quenched The sample was only used to measure the gamma matrix lattice parameter using the CBED technique. The sample was chosen because it was water quenched from the solution heat treatment temperature and consequently showed only very weak (1, 1/2, 0) SRO reflections. A B = <114> CBED pattern from the RSR 185 gamma phase is shown in Figures 5.30a and 5.30b. There is no asymmetry in the central spot of the pattern shown in Figue 5.30a. Note the absence of 110 superlattice reflections in Figure 5.30b. 5.2 X-Ray Diffraction Measurements The gamma prime and gamma lattice parameters, as measured by x-ray diffraction, are listed in Table 5.1. The gamma prime lattice parameter is consistently larger in the Ta containing alloy, the RSR 197 alloy, than
