    Abstract

    The microstructure of the low temperature phase of NiMn has been examined by transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the ordered alloy has a twinned structure which minimizes the strains induced by ordering. The individual crystals are further fragmented by anti-phase boundaries. The presence of a twinned structure implies also a fragmentation into an anti-ferromagnetic domain structure.
