Fig. 4: The full strain tensor distributions of ICNP-1.
a Atoms in ICNP-1 used to determine the 3D strain tensor, where the atoms in white from the amorphous domains and the surfaces are excluded for strain measurement. The balls in the atomic model with yellow, blue, and dark purple color represent the atoms with fcc, hcp, and Ih structure, respectively. The Z-axis is determined parallel to the perpendicular direction of the {111} planes in domain 1 and domain 20 (Supplementary Fig. 21). Scale bar: 2 nm. b Maps of the six components of the full strain tensor, with the same block-like distribution as crystal domains in (a). The white atoms show where the strain tensor cannot be determined due to the lack of reference lattice. The dashed line highlights the hcp grain boundaries. c The histogram of six components of the full strain tensor on both C5 (red) and C5′ sides (blue), the strain tensor is mostly larger on the C5′ side. d Scatter plot of six components of the full strain tensor vs. distance from core to surface. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
