Abstract In order to investigate the formation mechanisms of the layered growth phenomena in diffusion couples with spinodal decomposition, a phase field model combined with elastic strain field was employed. Microstructure evolutions of diffusion couple with spinodal decomposition in binary alloys were numerically simulated by considering concentration fluctuation and elastic anisotropy. The simulation results indicate that the number of the periodical layers decreases with the increase of initial concentration fluctuation, even with large elastic anisotropy. The growth of layered microstructures can be attributed to the directional diffusion enhanced by initially discontinuous chemical potential at the interface.
