Dislocations in the deformation microstructure of alpha-Mg and long-period stacking phase (LPS) crystals in an Mg97Y2Zn1 alloy extruded at 350 degrees C are studied by high-angle annular detector dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM). Extended a-dislocations in alpha-Mg crystals are observed as bright line contrasts being parallel to close-packed planes in HAADF-STEM images, showing the segregation of Y and Zn at stacking faults of the extended a-dislocations. On the other hand, a-dislocations in LPS crystals are represented as dark lines in bright fringes of Zn/Y-rich planes periodically arrayed in the LPS structure. Various grain boundaries with slow or sharp bends of close-packed planes are formed by configurations of a series of a-dislocations in the alpha-Mg and LPS crystals. [doi:10.2320/matertrans.M2012115]
