Abstract

Isothermal ‘order-order’ relaxations in Ll2-ordered N76Al24+0.19at.%B were studied by means of residual resistometry. This method made it possible to register very fine changes in the degree of LRO occurring about 1000K below the disordering temperature. The experimental results of two simultaneous processes being involved in these order-order relaxations with a high activation energy of 4.6eV are explained with an atomistic model of atomic jumps to nn vacancies. The parallel processes are connected with selected jumps of atoms to nn vacancies on different sublattices with a high activation energy of vacancy formation being involved.
