Structural defects such as stacking faults and twins, observed in many face-centered cubic (FCC) structured metals and alloys with low stacking fault energies, in general, play an important role in microstructure evolution, and in particular, in nucleation and crystal growth, morphology development, and phase transformations during synthesis as well as post-synthesis processes.
