摘要
The rapid growth of the magnetostriction coefficient of ferromagnetic Fe1-xGax alloys that occurs at a composition range from 0 < x < 0.20 has recently been associated with the formation of nanoscale tetragonal precipitates close to an order-disorder transition. The structurally anisotropic precipitates are proposed to rotate in an applied magnetic field, thereby resulting in a large magnetoelastic response. X-ray diffuse scattering measurements sensitive to the atomic short-range ordering and lattice strain were performed on a quenched 18.7 at. % Ga alloy and show no dependence on the application of a magnetic field. This negative result sets limits on the role of nanoscale precipitates in magnetostriction.
