Abstract

Tracer diffusion coefficient of 59Fe in FePt with the tetragonal L10 ordered structure has been measured by an ion-beam sputter-sectioning technique in the temperature range from 1173 to 1374 K. Anisotropy in diffusion has been studied using single-variant single-crystal specimens. The diffusion coefficient in the direction perpendicular to [001] axis (in the a-axis direction), D a, is larger than that in the [001] (c-axis) direction, Dc, as expected from the atomic arrangement of the L10 ordered structure. The ratio of the diffusion coefficients, D a/D c, is 1.33.6 for Fe42Pt58 and smaller at higher temperatures. The activation energy for the diffusion is 259 ± 1 kJ/mol for D a and 309 ± 18 kJ/mol for Dc, while the pre-exponential factor is and , respectively in Fe42Pt58.
