AbstractThe chemical disordering model for the electron irradiation induced crystalline to amorphous (C-A) transition was previously developed using in-situ experiments in the intermetallic compounds of the Cu-Ti binary alloy system. In the context of this model, a rule was developed which predicts the amorphisation tendency of these and other binary intertransition metal compounds with an accuracy of 92% in the 38 compounds studied to date. Two aspects of this rule, the composition of the compound and the crystal structure are examined through a first approximation computer comparison of ordered, partially ordered, and disordered crystal structures. It is found that in bcc based compounds and in complex crystal structure compounds, the ability of the chemical disordering to raise the energy of the crystal is severely inhibited at compound compositions away from 50:50. During the disordering process, the greatest increase of the crystal energy occurs during the early stages of chemical disordering. These results mesh well with the concept of an amorphous transition driven by the energy increase due to chemical disordering.

In situ observation of phase formations in Cu–In–2Se (atomic ratio) precursor layers was carried out using temperature-dependent micro-Raman scattering spectroscopy. Without the protection of a high Se vapor pressure, intermediate In–Se and Cu–Se selenides and CuAu-ordered CuInSe2 (CIS) were easily formed in the amorphous precursor layer, which have atomic structures arranged in a way close to that of α-CIS. The binary selenides were transformed to the α-CIS by in-/out-diffusion of the mobile Cu and Se atoms/ions. The γ-CuSe and α-CIS began to form at a temperature as low as ∼170 °C.
