Strain glass is a new glassy state discovered recently in Ni-rich Ti–Ni ferroelastic alloys. However, it remains unclear whether or not strain glass can be found in a wide range of ferroelastic systems. Here, we investigated the transition behavior of three different defect-doped systems Ti50(Ni50−xDx) (D=Co, Cr, Mn) and found a striking similarity in their transition behavior as a function of defect concentration x. In all these systems, there exists a critical doping level xcat which the transition behavior shows an interesting crossover. At x<xc, these materials undergo a martensitic transition and the transition temperature decreases with increasing x. However, at x>xc, the martensitic transition is suppressed and a strain glass transition occurs. These results imply that strain glass may be quite general in defect-containing ferroelastic systems. An analysis with a modified Landau-type free energy landscape suggests that although point defects always favor the formation of strain glass, to actually form a strain glass they need to destabilize the martensite of the system.
