Abstract

Abstract The evolution of structural phases and the morphology of the microstructure of several Fe-xAl and Fe-xGa compositions were studied by neutron diffraction with high Δd/d resolution and with high-intensity continuous scanning in a wide temperature range. It was found that the formation of an ordered structure upon a change in the Al or Ga content or during a phase transition upon a change in temperature leads to a decrease in the unit-cell parameter with a “jump” of the order of Δa/a ~ 0.001. A specific microstructure in the form of mesoscopic clusters (L ~ 200–1000 A) with an ordered atomic structure dispersedly incorporated into a disordered or less ordered matrix can be formed in the ranges of 23 at%
