Abstract

Electron irradiation experiments were carried out on (1 0 0) TiC0.93 thin foils inside an electron microscope operated at 100 kV at room temperature. Both graphite rings and extra diffraction spots were observed as irradiation continued. The extra diffraction spots correspond to an ordered cubic superstructure having a composition near TiC0.5, as determined by Goretzki. These extra spots were disrupted with continued irradiation. These results are discussed in the light of displacement damage in TiC.
