Thermal stability of cluster structure in Bi _x Sn_{1− x} molten alloys in vicinity of eutectic point

摘要

Structure of liquid Bi _x Sn_{1− x} molten alloys has been studies in the vicinity of eutectic point at temperatures of complete melting and above by 100 K. It is shown that the structure parameter concentration dependences reveal the deviation from linear function with extremum points at eutectic composition. Such features exist also at higher temperatures. The reason of untypical behaviour of structure parameters is supposed to be attributed to the existence of two kinds of clusters with Sn‐ and Bi‐like structures.View full textDownload full textKeywordsX‐ray diffraction, liquid metals and alloys, eutectic melts, short‐range order, clusterRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/00319104.2011.651208
