The FeNi material with L10 ordered structure has excellent magnetic properties and broad application prospects. However, the formation temperature of the L10 structure in FeNi is low, and the atomic ordering diffusion is slow at this temperature. Therefore, it is difficult to directly synthesize L10-FeNi in the experiment. The effects of doping with Bi, Pb, Au, and Cu elements on the ordering diffusion and magnetic properties of FeNi were investigated by using the first principles. The results show that doping with a third element can effectively improve the formation kinetics of FeNi, thereby promoting the ordering transition of FeNi. Among them, Au and Cu elements are easier to substitute for the matrix atoms and are doped into the lattice, which is more conducive to the stability of the structure. Bi, Pb, Au, and Cu are more likely to occupy the Fe site. The doping of elements can effectively reduce the vacancy formation energy of FeNi, which reduces the diffusion activation energy and promotes the diffusion and transfer of Fe and Ni atoms. Therefore, the disorder-order transition barrier of FeNi can be lowered to effectively improve the ordering transition of FeNi. The doping of third elements at the Ni site has little effect on the electronic structure and magnetic properties of FeNi.
