Abstract

We have studied structural changes in the high-temperature B2-phase in a large single crystal at temperatures near the premartensitic transformation B2 → B19′. We are the first to observe an extra 1/2 (110) reflection in neutron diffraction patterns taken along the [110]B2 direction as the sample is cooled below 420 K, but still far from the martensite start temperature (Ms=180 K). This extra reflection heralds the formation of long-range order in atomic displacements with wave vectorq=(1/2±δ)[110]2Θ/a. Premartensitic diffraction effects (caused by the development and correlation of lattice waves of atomic displacements with wave vectorsq 1′≊2Θ/a[1/3, 1/3, 0] andq 1″≊2Θ/1[1/3, 1/3] that were clearly visible in this same single crystal before the martensitic transformation B2 → R, appeared at even lower temperatures with substantially lower intensities.
