The Li concentration gradient along the gauge length 1, was calculated after measurements carried out with the AAS method(atomic absorption spectroscopy) in or- der to detect possible losses of Li during sample fabrication and solution treat- ment. Along the gauge length no major deviation (less then 0.15 Wt%) from the expec- ted Li concentration of about 2.2 to 2.3 wt% was found.
Symmetrical push-pull fatigue tests were performed with a servohydraulic machine using frequencies of about 1/3 Hz. For the duration of each test the plast'c shear str in amplitude y 1 was kept constant. The values of ypl ranged from 10-4 up to lo-?. After the faglgue tests, the fracture as well as the outer surface of the spe- cimens were investigated by SEM.
3.0 EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS 3.1 Mechanical Behaviour
The cyclic stress response (CSR) of A1-Li single crystals has been measured fo#- three different ageing temperatures. Fig. 1 shows the CSR curves at different strain amplitudes ypl for the so called 'underaged' UA specimens aged at 160°C for 3.5 and 10 h, respectively. In comparison to these curves the corresponding curve of a cry- stal aged only at room temperature (RT) has been plotted in the same figure. The stress level of this,curve is much lower compared to the others. In additio?, all UA tuprcs start to fail at cycle numbers at and below 1000 after a minor har ening sta-
d .
ge whereas the RT-curve continues to harden until test interruption at 10 cycles.

< ypl < 4.10- 4
The highest value of t for all y was reached after ageing the crystals at 200°C .
After ageing for 16 h as well asP+ or 48 h, nearly the same value of E was obtained, showing that the 'peak-aged'condition seems to be maintained over a relatively long period of ageing. The scatter band sketched in Fig. 1 represents all fatigue measu- rements obtained from PA specimens. The individual curves show neither hardening nor softening until beginning failure.

The maximum p l a s t i c shear s t r a i n observed d u r i n g a b u r s t was about 10 f o l d t h e c o n t r o l l e d s t r a i n v a l u e which was made p o s s i b l e by t h e unusual method we used t o c o n t r o l t h i s s t r a i n .
I n one experiment we were a b l e t o use a microscope connected t o a video system. Ac- c o r d i n g t o these observations t h e s t r a i n b u r s t s can be c o r r e l a t e d t o t h e n u c l e a t i o n o f one o r more p l a n a r s l i p bands which propagate through t h e whole c r o s s s e c t i o n o f t h e specimen w i t h i n a f r a c t i o n o f a second which i s much smaller than t h e c y c l e t i m e . Again, a comparison can be made t o t h e case o f Cu-A1 s o l i d s o l u t i o n s where t h e occurrence o f s i m i l a r b u r s t s has been r e p o r t e d (12).
5. CONCLUSIONS
The r e s u l t s o f these i n v e s t i g a t i o n s demonstrate t h a t t h e f a t i g u e behaviour o f p r e c i - p i t a t i o n hardened A1-Li s i n g l e c r y s t a l s s t r o n g l y depends on t h e ageing t r e a t m e n t and t h e r e f o r e on t h e m i c r o s t r u c t u r e . For t h e UA and PA specimens which c o n t a i n coherent 6 ' p a r t i c l e s p l a n a r s l i p was observed i n a l l cases. I t can be concluded t h a t p l a n a r s l i p i s i n i t i a t e d by m o b i l e d i s l o c a t i o n s which shear t h e 6 ' p r e c i p i t a t e s . As soon as a c r i t i c a l s t r e s s r i s reached, some d i s l o c a t i o n s become mobile and induce an ava- lanche o f h i g h l y mogile d i s l o c a t i o n s . The avalanche i s accompanied by t h e develop- ment o f heavy s t r a i n b u r s t s which r e s u l t i n p l a s t i c s t r a i n s o f ap t o t e n times t h e c o n t r o l l e d y p l . These s t r a i n b u r s t s obtained f o r UA specimens resemble those found t o occur i n s o l i d s o l u t i o n s such as Cu-A1, where a w e l l e s t a b l i s h e d s h o r t range o r - der seems t o be r e s p o n s i b l e f o r p l a n a r s l i p . For A1-Li s i n g l e c r y s t a l s small 6 ' par- t i c l e s a r e s u s c e p t i b l e t o t h e development o f s t r a i n b u r s t s and t h e s t r a i n b u r s t e f f e c t decreases w i t h growing p a r t i c l e s i z e , as demonstrated f o r PA specimens. For HA specimens l a r g e p a r t i c l e s do n o t promote p l a n a r s l i p . Instead, evidence f o r t h e occurance o f PSBs i s found - a t l e a s t i n areas c l o s e t o t h e s u r f a c e - which i s t y p i - c a l f o r non-planar s l i p .
