Abstract. The relationship between antiphase boundaries (APBs), antiphase domains (APDs) and the functional properties of alloys of the Ni-Mn-In system has been studied. The density of APBs was controlled using various thermal treatments. The fine domain structure was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-angle dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM), and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). The results obtained are discussed in the context of the possibility of modeling and designing materials with specified characteristics and properties.

Key words: antiphase boundaries, antiphase domains, Heusler structures, ordered austenite solid solution.

Financing: The study was supported by a grant from the Russian Science Foundation, project No. 20-79-10197, https://rscf.ru/project/20-79-10197/.
