Spinodal decomposition can induce nanoscale composition fluctuations while maintaining crystal coherency within each grain of a material and lead to a combination of excellent mechanical/physical properties. However, its viable alloy systems and the range of composition modulation are very limited. Here, we report that a similar “spinodoid” structure can be formed by selective etching and electrochemical refilling instead. This approach is operative in even undecomposable alloys and can push composition modulation to the extreme, which has induced near-theoretical strength and might enable other unprecedented mechanical/ functional properties in the future. We present an extreme case of composition-modulated nanomaterial formed by selective etching (dealloying) and electrochemical refilling. The product is a coarse-grain polycrystal consisting of two interwoven nanophases, with identical crystal structures and a cube-on-cube relationship, separated by smoothly curved semicoherent interfaces with high-density misfit dislocations. This material resembles spinodal alloys structurally, but its synthesis and composition modulation are spinodal-independent. Our Cu/Au “spinodoid” alloy demonstrates superior mechanical properties such as near-theoretical strength and single-phase-like behavior, owing to its fine composition modulation, large-scale coherence of crystal lattice, and smoothly shaped three-dimensional (3D) interface morphology. As a unique extension of spinodal alloy, the spinodoid alloy reported here reveals a number of possibilities to modulate the material’s structure and composition down to the nanoscale, such that further improved properties unmatchable by conventional materials can be achieved.
