金属间化合物L10-TiAl点缺陷浓度的第一原理

摘要

Using the plane wave pseudopotential method in first-principles and Wagner-Schottky model, the formation enthalpies, equilibrium concentrations, and interaction of vacancies and anti-site point defects were assessed for L1 0−TiAl intermetallics. The results show that, in the whole composition range of interest, all the defect concentrations increase with increasing temperature. In particular, the anti-site defect concentrations are higher than the vacancy defect concentrations, and the Ti vacancy concentration is higher than the Al vacancy concentration. At the stoichiometric composition, the Ti anti-site defect concentration is comparable to that of Al anti-site defect. At the Ti-rich side, the Ti anti-site defect concentration is higher than that of Al anti-site defect, while at the Al-rich side, the Al anti-site defect concentration is higher than that of Ti anti-site defect. The interaction between these defects is essentially repulsive, which facilitates the defect distribution and diffusion in the matrix.%采用第一原理平面波赝势方法，结合Wagner-Schottky缺陷热力学模型，研究金属间化合物L10−TiAl中各种空位和反位点缺陷的形成焓、热力学平衡浓度及其相互作用等。结果表明：这些缺陷的热力学平衡浓度均随温度的升高而增大，其中反位缺陷浓度均高于空位缺陷浓度，Ti空位浓度高于Al空位浓度。在理想化学计量比成分下，Ti反位缺陷的浓度与Al反位缺陷的基本相当；在略偏离计量比的富Ti成分端，Ti反位缺陷的浓度高于Al反位缺陷的；在富Al成分端则相反。不同点缺陷之间均普遍存在相互排斥性，难以聚集，将倾向于向基体中分散和扩散。
