“…The mechanism of double twinning, in which twins form in the interior of twins, has received considerable attention in single-crystal and pure Mg literature, [14,15] particularly in regard to the formation of compression bands. [3] In our previous EBSD analyses, we observed boundaries with misorientation angles and axes consistent with the operation of this mode in pure Mg. [16] However, in general, identification of these twins by EBSD analysis was hampered by the difficulty in obtaining diffraction patterns from the interiors of twins suspected to be of this type.…”
