Sections of a few µm-sized particles of Fe1xAlx (x = 0.350.42) powders, produced by the atomizing method, were prepared for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using new specimen supporting methods and ion thinning. As-atomized paramagnetic particles, the particles magnetized by cold milling for several hours and those demagnetized by ageing for 1 min at 200°C have been observed in cross-sectional high-resolution TEM images.
