“…Growth-nature of growth front and mechanism of g m growth According to Perepezko [32] and Massalski, [33] the growth of a massively transformed product may be achieved by either of the following two mechanisms: (1) thermally activated short-range jump of atoms across the incoherent interface, in which the interface should be curved; or (2) ledge mechanism, in which the interface should be planar. On the other hand, Lin et al [34] reported a completely coherent interface preserving the perfect crystallographic orientation relationship, i.e., (111) gm // (0001) a and [110] gm // [11 ʳ 20] a and, hence, suggested a ledge mechanism for the growth of g m . [8,15,17,18,34] Denquin and Naka [8] reported the g m /a interface to be curved.…”
