Due to its technological importance, the Al-Ti system has received much attention lately. For example, TiAl3 (as well as TiAl) has a low density and very high elevatedtemperature strength. However, this compound forms in the tetragonal D022 structure which has low ductility. Recent studies [1,2] have tried to understand the role of tetragonal distortion and the effect of ternary additions [3] in stablizing the D022 relative to the L12.

ABSTRACTFirst principles total energy local density method have addressed the problems of (i) bonding, cohesion and phase stability and (ii) the role of ternary additions, anti-phase boundaries (APB's) and other faults in determining the structural, electronic and mechanical properties of aluminum intermetallic alloys. A key goal has been to attempt to understand, at the electronic level, fundamental quantities that may be related to the crucial brittleness vs. ductility issue in high temperature Ni and Ti and other aluminides. Other contrasts between observed ductility properties of related systems (e.g., NiAl and RuAl) are related to their differing electronic and bonding properties, particularly the nature of p-d hybridization and the directional properties of their electronic charge distrubutions - especially for states near the Fermi energy.
