26. 1-xN alloy, the shape of the ordered domains is more complex than in our model systems, and the realistic ordered/random interfaces may not be atomically sharp. That may explain why the observed change (Ref. 6) of the μr product with x is more gradual than the drop of the transition amplitude in Fig. 1(c).
