Vacancy decomposition kinetics in crystals at elevated temperatures is analysed. It is found that lattice instability is induced by a significantly enhanced vacancy decomposition at a critical temperature (T*). The critical temperature coincides with the kinetic instability limit ( kinetic limit of superheating) of crystals in a variety of metals determined from the homogeneous nucleation catastrophe model.
