Nanotechnology Now - Press Release: Nanoscale chemically ordered-disordered domains in Fe3Pt alloys and their three-dimensional interface and lattice strain

In solid-state matters, chemical ordering is often closely associated with their fantastic physical properties and specific chemical reaction mechanisms. Through the redistribution of atoms and chemical bonds, the modulation of chemical ordering can lead to effective lattice tuning and provide intrinsic lattice stress. However, the direct probing of the three-dimensional structure of chemically ordered/disordered interfaces remains a great challenge.
