The radial distribution functions for amorphous Fe‐Ge alloys at various compositions are determined using the electron diffraction technique. The position of the maximum of the first peak corresponding to the nearest neighbour distance varies little with composition. Small peaks which are not found in the radial distribution functions for both, pure Fe and pure Ge, appear in the region between the first and second coordination shells. The microcrystalline model is applied to explore a reasonable fit for the experimental curves of 30 to 50 at% Fe alloys. The results indicate that the calculated radial distribution function for the FeGe structure yields the general features of the experimental curve in comparison with the FeGe2 and Fe2Ge models. However, it is impossible to describe completely the local atomic order of amorphous Fe‐Ge alloys by the microcrystalline model.
