Cu-Au, Ag-Au, Cu-Ag, and Ni-Au Intermetallics: First-Principles Study of Temperature-Composition Phase Diagrams and Structures

Research output: Contribution to journalArticle

Abstract

The classic metallurgical systems--noble-metal alloys--that have formed the benchmark for various alloy theories are revisited. First-principles fully relaxed general-potential linearized augmented plane-wave (LAPW) total energies of a few ordered structures are used as input to a mixed-space cluster expansion calculation to study the phase stability, thermodynamic properties, and bond lengths inCu-Au, Ag-Au, Cu-Ag, and Ni-Au alloys.
