a–c Precession electron diffraction (PED) bright-field image and phase map of the sample at the states of a post-compression (25 °C), after annealing at b 200 °C, and c 400 °C, where Al, T and M represent aluminum, tetragonal and monoclinic with dark blue, light blue, and pink color, respectively; the compression direction (from top to bottom) is indicated by the arrow. d Area ratio of different phases determined from the PED images in a–c. Scale bar, (a–c) 500 nm.
