ABSTRACTFor the understanding of the properties of the technically important intermetallic compounds as transition metal aluminides and silicides the understanding of atomic defect properties is pivotal. From recent positron lifetime studies high or low values for the effective vacancy formation enthalpy were found for close-packed or for more open-structured bcc type compounds, respectively, which can be well understood theoretically. In B2-FeAl the vacancy migration enthalpy could be additionally derived at high temperatures from vacancy equilibration processes. It is shown here by a study on B2-FeAl in comparison to the positron annihilation experiments that the thermal formation and migration of defects can be specifically investigated by time-dependent length-change experiments at high temperatures by the defect equilibration behavior after temperature changes. With the present data on vacancy formation and migration the wide variation of the transition-metal self-diffusivities in intermetallic compounds can be understood.

ABSTRACTWe present a first principles thermodynamic study of O ad-atom and vacancy formation on the AO- and BO2-terminated (001) surfaces of the PbTiO3 (PTO) and LaMnO3 (LMO) cubic perovskites. Our results show that, owing to the highly energetically unfavorable nature of O vacancy formation on these surfaces, O vacancies appear only at high temperatures and practically irrelevant low pressures on the (T, p) surface phase diagram. In contrast, effortless formation of O ad-atoms on the surfaces is encountered at practically achievable pressures and temperatures. Above room temperature and close to atmospheric pressures, we predict clean PbO and TiO2-terminated (001) PTO surfaces as the stable surface phases while partially or fully O ad-atom covered surfaces are found to be more stable for LMO. These results are consistent with the observation that LMO is far more active towards oxidation catalysis than PTO.

The formation and migration energies of the mono-vacancy in M3AC2 have been investigated using first-principles calculations. The results have shown that M element vacancy formation is the most energetically difficult in M3AC2. The A atomic layer is the most active one. It was also found that the energies of mono-vacancy formation and migration in Ti3AlC2 are higher than that in Ti3SiC2 and Ti3GeC2. Moreover, our calculation of the density of state confirms the conclusion that Ti3AlC2 is the most stable in the selected M3AC2 materials under high-temperature or irradiation environment conditions. These results could provide theoretical insights for the experimental results that Ti3AlC2 has a better radiation resistance than Ti3SiC2 and Ti3GeC2.
