Abstract
An ideal ultrafine-grained (UFG) microstructure for high strength and high ductility should have short dislocation-slip path to impede dislocation slip and very low dislocation density to ensure more room for dislocation accumulation. Such a microstructure is hard to produce, especially for UFG metals produced by severe plastic deformation techniques. Here, we report an ideal UFG structure produced by reverse transformation of deformation-induced martensite in 304 L austenitic stainless steel. It produced small grains and a high density of nanotwins for both high strength and high ductility. This approach is applicable to face-centered cubic metals with low stacking fault energy.
