The [gamma]-[gamma][prime] lattice mismatch of specimens of the monocrystalline nickel-base superalloy SRR 99 has been measured by a high-resolution X-ray diffraction technique for the undeformed state and after high-temperature creep deformation. During creep deformation beyond the minimum creep rate (total strain [approximately]0.5%), the lattice mismatches, measured in and perpendicular to the [001] stress axis, respectively, undergo changes in opposite directions. This reflects the buildup of a complex deformation-induced triaxial state of internal stress in the phases [gamma] and [gamma][prime]. The overall resolved shear stresses that act in [gamma][prime] and [gamma] due to the combined action of the external and internal stresses are estimated, and the conditions under which cutting of the [gamma][prime] phase by dislocations should occur are discussed.
