Electrodeposited hard-magnetic Fe 50 Pd 50 nanowires from an ammonium-citrate-based bath

•Pulse electrodeposition with ton=2s and toff=10s results in formation of homogenous nanowires.•2.5µm long nanowires with composition of Fe55+5Pd45+5 were deposited.•As deposited nanowires have fcc crystal structure and are magnetically soft.•Thermal annealing induces the development of the L10 phase which resulted in the HC=122kA/m.
