Improved modified embedded-atom method potentials for gold and silicon
The modified embedded-atom method interatomic potentials for pure gold and pure silicon are improved in their melting point and latent heat predictions, by modifying the multi-body screening function and the equation of state function. The fitting of the new parameters requires rapid calculations of melting point and latent heat, which are enabled by efficient free-energy methods. The results p...
متن کاملFine structure on flat surfaces of quasicrystalline Al-Pd-Mn
We have analyzed the fine structure revealed by scanning tunneling microscopy for a flat (within 0.8 Å) fivefold surface of i-Al-Pd-Mn. Even though features in the image appear to be arranged randomly, self-similar features are separated by distinct distances. The distribution of such distances is compatible with the separations between pseudo-Mackay icosahedra tangent to the topmost layer, and...
متن کاملLow-temperature lattice excitation of icosahedral Al-Mn-Pd quasicrystals
We suggest a theoretical method for dealing with the contribution of phasons to the lattice vibration of quasicrystals. Based on this, we derive the density of vibrational states ~DOVS! and specific-heat expressions of the icosahedral Al-Mn-Pd quasicrystal, and obtain corresponding numerical solutions which are in agreement with the experimental data measured by Wälti et al. @Phys. Rev. B 57, 1...
متن کاملPhason Relaxation Mechanisms in Al-Pd-Mn Single-Quasicrystals
Quasicrystals represent a new state of condensed matter which exhibits long-range quasiperiodic translational order and orientational order with noncrystallographic symmetry. Mechanical spectroswpy was applied for the study of defect properties in stable icosahedral singlequasicrystalliine AlPd-Mn samples. Two mechanical loss maxima appear at 360 K and 870 K for a measuring frequency of f S 3 H...
