Ordered structures in rhenium binary alloys from first-principles calculations.
Rhenium is an important alloying agent in catalytic materials and superalloys, but the experimental and computational data on its binary alloys are sparse. Only 6 out of 28 Re transition-metal systems are reported as compound-forming. Fifteen are reported as phase-separating, and seven have high-temperature disordered σ or χ phases. Comprehensive high-throughput first-principles calculations pr...
متن کاملThe new face of rhodium alloys: revealing ordered structures from first principles.
The experimental and computational data on rhodium binary alloys is sparse despite its importance in numerous applications, especially as an alloying agent in catalytic materials. Half of the Rh-transition metal systems (14 out of 28) are reported to be phase separating or are lacking experimental data. Comprehensive high-throughput first-principles calculations predict stable ordered structure...
متن کاملUncovering compounds by synergy of cluster expansion and high-throughput methods.
Predicting from first-principles calculations whether mixed metallic elements phase-separate or form ordered structures is a major challenge of current materials research. It can be partially addressed in cases where experiments suggest the underlying lattice is conserved, using cluster expansion (CE) and a variety of exhaustive evaluation or genetic search algorithms. Evolutionary algorithms h...
متن کاملOrdered magnesium-lithium alloys: First-principles predictions
Magnesium-lithium Mg-Li alloys are among the lightest structural materials. Although considerable work has been done on the Mg-Li system, little is known regarding potential ordered phases. A first and rapid analysis of the system with the high-throughput method reveals an unexpected wealth of potentially stable low-temperature phases. Subsequent cluster expansions constructed for bcc and hcp s...
متن کاملFirst-principles solubilities of alkali and alkaline-earth metals in Mg-B alloys
In this article, we present a comprehensive theoretical study of solubilities of alkali Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs and alkaline-earth Be, Ca, Sr, Ba metals in the boron-rich Mg-B system. The study is based on first-principles calculations of solutes formation energies in MgB2, MgB4, MgB7 alloys and subsequent statisticalthermodynamical evaluation of solubilities. The advantage of the approach consists i...
