Ab Initio Calculation of the Cu-Pd One-Dimensional Long Period Superstructure Phase Diagram.
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 February 2011
Abstract
The FCC superstructure phase diagram for Cu-Pd is calculated by means of isotropic effective interactions derived from an ab initio KKR-CPA electronic structure calculation. We prove the existence of a region in which one-dimensional long period superstructures are stable. This region is composed of several single phase fields in which the modulation period is constant. The value of the modulation period is in close agreement with results from High Resolution Electron Microscopy. Adding oxygen to Cu-Pd is found to sharpen the antiphase boundaries. This experiment enables us to clarify the role of the Fermi surface in these alloys.
