Abstract
It is shown that twins and antiphase boundaries can coexist in nanoscale objects. It ishas been established that twinning and ordering domains affectthe diffraction features, by distorting the reflection series in electron diffraction patterns. The structure and phase relation of nanoparticles cannot be adequately explained without preliminary studies of their defect structure.
