Lattice dynamics and correlated atomic motion from the atomic pair distribution function
The mean-square relative displacements ~MSRD! of atomic pair motions in crystals are studied as a function of pair distance and temperature using the atomic pair distribution function ~PDF!. The effects of the lattice vibrations on the PDF peak widths are modelled using both a multi-parameter Born–von Karman ~BvK! force model and a single-parameter Debye model. These results are compared to exp...
متن کاملThe atomic pair distribution function: past and present
The history of the PDF method is briefly reviewed. Recent results, principally from the Billinge group, are also reviewed.
متن کاملLocal Atomic Structure Analysis Using the Atomic Pair Distribution Method
Powder diffraction is a major component of any condensed matter scientist’s arsenal, providing the investigator a way to directly map the location of atoms inside of a material. The most common diffraction experiments provide insights into the average atomic structure of materials, which can break down when materials have lowered local symmetry, or are disordered. Analysis of the pair distribut...
متن کاملNanostructure studied using the atomic pair distribution function
Studying the atomic structure of nanostructured materials presents a special challenge because our extensive crystallographic toolbox begins to lose its power on the nanoscale. The presumption of periodicity is a poor approximation when structural correlation lengths are limited to a few tens of nanometres or less and alternative approaches are needed. Here we give an overview of recent results...
متن کاملStudies of Some Problems Related to Atomic Ordering, Molecular Motion and Pair Distribution Function
STUDIES OF SOME PROBLEMS RELATED TO ATOMIC ORDERING, MOLECULAR MOTION AND PAIR DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION By Valentin A. Levashov In this thesis the results of my work on three out of four projects on which I was working during my Ph. D. under supervision of Prof. M.F. Thorpe are summarized. The first project was devoted to the study of properties of a model that was developed to reproduce the order...
