Abstract
The structural defects of beta-Si3N4 grains were investigated by trans mission electron microscopy (TEM). TEM analysis suggested the existenc e of dislocation, and or-type structure in beta-Si3N4 grains. In patic ular, TEM analysis of Si3N4 seeds annealed at 2473 K under 30 MPa in N -2 indicated that the beta-Si3N4 grains contain an alpha-Si3N4 structu re.
