Title: Structural and Dynamical Fluctuations in Off-Stoichiometric NiMnGa Shape-Memory Alloys

Journal Article · · Applied Physics Letters
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4884062· OSTI ID:1134651

3D diffuse scattering dataset in the temperature region of the existence of high temperature cubic L21 phase reveals localized intensity maxima related to phason modes. Peierls instability induced tetragonal distortions in the pre-martensitic phase cause strong diffuse scattering. Around (H0H) reflections diffuse scattering is strongly compressed along the [H0H] and enhanced along the [-H0H] direction.
