      abstract     = {Laves phases represent a class of intermetallic compounds
                      with unique structures and properties. Exploring these
                      phases can lead to the discovery of novel materials with
                      desirable characteristics for various applications, such as
                      in the aerospace, automotive, and electronics industries.
                      Interesting are these for multi-component alloy systems like
                      the Mg-Al-Ca, to strengthen the main magnesium (Mg) matrix.
                      By studying their formation and properties, researchers can
                      optimise alloy compositions for specific purposes, such as
                      enhancing corrosion resistance, improving mechanical
                      properties, or reducing material costs. Especially to be
                      able to investigate this system and the interaction of the
                      main matrix with the Laves phases, the properties of Laves
                      phases must be unravelled to get more knowledge in terms of
                      plasticity and mechanical properties, to have further the
                      ability to understand the interaction. Investigating
                      different compositions of Laves phases contributes to our
                      understanding of phase stabilityand the influence of
                      chemistry on the mechanical properties. This knowledge is
                      crucial for predicting the behaviour of materials under
                      different conditions. The overarching goal of this thesis is
                      to get more insights into the dislocation behaviour of the
                      formed Laves phases of the Mg-Al-Ca system, namely the
                      hexagonal C14 CaMg2 and the cubic C15 CaAl2 Laves phase.
                      Therefore, this thesis was subdivided into sub-goals: i)
                      which slip systems can be activated, ii) the influence of
                      the temperature and the local chemistry on the dislocation
                      behaviour, and iii) the attempt to answer the question if
                      the findings of mechanical properties and dislocation
                      behaviour and their changes with temperature and local
                      chemistry can be transferred to similar stacked phases and
                      furthermore be generalisable for Laves phases at all. The
                      possible slip systems were analysed by a correlative
                      investigation of the surface traces around indentation
                      marks. Therefore, the grain orientations (using electron
                      backscatter diffraction(EBSD)) were taken and aligned with
                      secondary electron (SE) images of forming slip traces around
                      an indentation mark. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM)
                      analyses have identified new slip planes {112}, {113},
                      {114}, {115}, {116}, and {1 1 11}, summarized as the {11n}
