The atomic diffusion in L10 ordered phase was investigated using on-the-fly kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. A simple model system for the L10 ordered phase was constructed. Although a simple model system was employed, the simulation results revealed quite complex aspects of the atomic diffusion. It was found that the activation energies of both constituent atoms changed significantly depending upon the composition and that the correlation factor made the activation energy larger for both atoms. It was also demonstrated that the diffusion anisotropy in the L10 phase which was observed in the experiment was reproduced. The different diffusion behaviour of the constituent atoms was considered, and the mechanism of the diffusion anisotropy in the L10 phase was clarified.
