چکیده

This article reviews the most important achievements in the studies of the compositional (chemical) and magnetic ordering effects in the surface region of single-crystal binary alloys with different bulk structures. These alloys include the non-magnetic and magnetic concentrated substitutional binary systems which have a tendency to ordering (Au–Cu, Cu–Pt, Fe–Pt, Co–Fe, Fe–Ni, Al–Fe, Al–Ni, Pt–Ti, Cu–Pd, Co–Pt, Ni–Pt, Al–Cu, Cu–Al). A number of analytical methods very sensitive to the surface region have been recently developed to obtain a more detailed knowledge of the crystallographic symmetry and lattice parameters, and these as well as compositional and spin order parameters of the outermost few atom layers of alloys are briefly described. Of primary interest are the following phenomena observed from the experimental studies of the various ordering alloys: the face-dependent bulk termination; surface composition and surface segregation oscillatory profile; face-related ‘sandwich’ segregation; strong surface multilayer and rippled relaxation as well as buckling in the first few layers; surface reconstruction and formation of the surface superstructure; the temperature-dependent surface compositional and magnetic order parameters; kinetics of the order–disorder phase transition; surface electron structure; surface ferromagnetic anomalies. After a review of the experimental data the interplay between theory and experiment is also discussed. This comparison has proved particularly useful for understanding the nature of the surface ordering effects in alloys.

Ordering process and age-hardening mechanism of CuPd-AuCu pseudo-binary alloys.

Ordering process and age-hardening mechanism of CuPd-AuCu pseudo-binary alloys were examined In alloys with electron-atom ratios (e/a)<0.87, short range ordering was observed in the early stage of aging, thereafter, long range ordering occurred from grain boundaries by heterogeneous ordering mecha nism. Age-hardening of these alloys was attained by the increase in volume fractions of CuPd and/o...

Order and Disorder Phenomena at Surfaces of Binary Alloys

We present recent Monte Carlo results on surfaces of bcc-structured binary alloys which undergo an order-disorder phase transformation in the bulk. In particular, we discuss surface order and surface induced disorder at the bulk transition between the ordered (DO3) phase and the disordered (A2) phase. An intricate interplay between different ordering and segregation phenomena leads to a complex...

Monte Carlo studies of directional pair ordering in disordered binary and ternary ferromagnetic BCC crystalline alloys

Magnetic field annealing can be used to induce uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in ferromagnetic alloys, which is often desirable, for example, to reduce core losses in materials of interest for high frequency inductive components in power conversion applications. An understanding of the compositional dependence of the uniaxial induced anisotropy constant KU is important to develop materials for su...
