High-resolution diffraction using synchrotron x-ray radiation was applied to study γ´ precipitates with an L12 superlattice crystal structure in the single crystal superalloy SC16 after creep deformation at 1223 K with a creep strain of ±0.5% for tensile and compressive loads, respectively. The measurements of full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 001 and 100 γ´ superlattice reflections were performed at various temperatures from ambient temperature to 1173 K in vacuum. The experimental results revealed that the FWHM of both reflections decrease with increasing temperature. It is well-known that changes in particle size and lattice distortion in materials could lead to a variation of FWHM. The observed behaviour is discussed in the light of both the above-mentioned aspects. The decrease in the peak width is mainly attributed to the temperature dependence of the internal strain state.
