Pair correlations on two one-dimensional Ising models with next-nearest-neighbor interactions are calculated exactly. For an appropriate range of values of the interaction energies, each of these models exhibits a disorder point, at which the nature of the short-range order changes abruptly, and at which there is a cusp in the graph of range of order vs. temperature. The zero-field susceptibilities are calculated exactly, and are found to have quite smooth temperature dependence.

AbstractLocal atomic structures around Zr and Pt in a quasicrystalline Zr80Pt20alloy, and amorphous and quasicrystalline Zr70Ni10Pt20alloys have been determined by the anomalous x-ray scattering (AXS) method. A distinct prepeak observed in an intensity profile of the amorphous Zr70Ni10Pt20alloy indicates existence of strong chemical short-range order (CSRO) clusters in the amorphous phase. Total coordination numbers around Zr and Pt in a nearest neighbor region in both alloys have been evaluated. The values around Pt are almost equal to 12 in the amorphous and quasicrystalline states suggest formation of icosahedral clusters around Pt. Some of crystalline structures formed from the quasicrystalline phases by annealing consist of icosahedral clusters of Zr and Ni atoms, or polyhedral clusters of Zr and Pt atoms similar with icosahedral clusters. The present result appears to support that the phase transformation from the amorphous to the crystal through the quasicrystal is explained by the icosahedral CSRO clusters in the amorphous and quasicrystalline states.

ABSTRACTInterdiffusion in a two-dimensional compositionally modulated lattice has been studied by Monte-Carlo simulations. In the initial stages, the interdiffusion coefficient has been observed to change with time due to the development of short-range order simultaneously with the interdiffusion process. When the short-range order parameter approached its limiting value, the diffusion coefficient approached a constant value. The dependence of the interdiffusion coefficient on the modulation wavelength does not agree with the prediction of one-dimensional theories. For ordering alloy systems, the effective interdiffusion coefficient is positive, i.e., an initially present modulation decays in time, for all wavelengths.

Zirconolite (CaZrTi2O7) is an important phase proposed for immobilization of plutonium. Radiation effects in zirconolite were studied by 1 MeV Kr+ and 1.5 MeV Xe+ irradiation at various temperatures. Zirconolite became amorphous at temperatures below a critical temperature, Tc. The critical temperature was found to be a function of ion species: Tc - 654 K for 1 MeV Kr+ and 710 K for 1.5 MeV Xe+. The temperature dependence of amorphization dose is shown in FIG. 1. Above Tc, the specimen remained crystalline after prolonged irradiation (up to 3.6×l015 ions/cm2). However, the high-temperature irradiated zirconolite was transformed into the fluorite structure (as shown by the strong diffraction maxima in FIG. 2). In addition to the maxima from the fluorite structure, strong diffuse maxima were observed surrounding the Bragg position of pyrochlore superlattice (FIG. 2).
