High temperature compressive tests were carried out on γ-LiAlO2 single crystals along their [1 0 0] and [0 0 1] directions. It was found that the LiAlO2 crystal deformed via a twinning process while compressed along [1 0 0]. The twinning elements for the observed deformation twin are summarized as K1: (1 1¯ 2), K2: (1¯ 1 2), η1: [1¯ 1 1], η2: [1 1¯ 1], and s = 0.305. No dislocation slips were observed associated with the twinning. When the crystal was compressed along [0 0 1], no twins but cracks were observed.
