The processes of consolidation, deconsolidation, phase transitions and destructions in the terms of internal structures of the Earth аre studied on the base of non-linear theory of deformable solid bodies. It is shown that the loss of stability of equilibrium state can precede to the processes of deconsolidation, phase transitions and destructions on geometric form change (structural instability).

Oxides with perovskite structure show characteristic features of their physical behaviour that can be relevant for the understanding of the mantle m aterial (MgFe)SiO 3 . Perovskites distort locally, and four different mechanisms have been found: tilt of octahedral complexes, off-centring of the octahedrally coordinated cation, distortion of the octahedral cage and off-centring of the 12-fold coordinated site. These deformations usually lead to structural instabilities related to phase transitions, extremely sluggish kinetic behaviour even leading to pseudo-glasses and polaronic transport. All these properties depend sensitively on the oxygen fugacities, defect densities and the rheology of the system. There is some evidence that the predicted structural phase transitions and glass states occur in CaSiO 3 whereas no structural instability has yet been reported in MgSiO 3 .

Electron microscopy can be used to study structures and phase transitions occurring in graphite intercalations compounds. The fundamental symmetry in graphite intercalation compounds is the staging periodicity whereby each intercalate layer is separated by n graphite layers, n denoting the stage index. The currently accepted model for intercalation proposed by Herold and Daumas assumes that the sample contains equal amounts of intercalant between any two graphite layers and staged regions are confined to domains. Specifically, in a stage 2 compound, the Herold-Daumas domain wall model predicts a pleated lattice plane structure.

Thin GexTe1-x (x = 0.15-0.8) were studied as a model substance of a composite semiconductor film, in addition being of interest for optical storage material. Two complementary modes of time-resolved TEM were used to trace the phase transitions, induced by an attached Q-switched (50 ns FWHM) and frequency doubled (532 nm) Nd:YAG laser. The laser radiation was focused onto the specimen within the TEM to a 20 μm spot (FWHM). Discrete intermediate states were visualized by short-exposure time doubleframe imaging /1,2/. The full history of a transformation was gained by tracking the electron image intensity with photomultiplier and storage oscilloscopes (space/time resolution 100 nm/3 ns) /3/. In order to avoid radiation damage by the probing electron beam to detector and specimen, the beam is pulsed in this continuous mode of time-resolved TEM,too.Short events ( <2 μs) are followed by illuminating with an extended single electron pulse (fig. 1c)
