Popis: A visible four-layers structure with anomalous nano-sturucture was formed from a homogeneous -phase Bi3Pb7 intermetallic compound under a strong gravitational field (1.02x106 G, 130°C, 100 hours). In the 4th layer (lowest-gravity region), pure Bi particles precipitate. In the 2nd 3rd layers, composition graded structures, where Pb content increased along the gravity direction, were formed. It was found that the very broad XRD peak appeared in the 2nd layer, which indicated that an amorphous structure was contained.
