Title: Heats of formation in transition intermetallic alloys

Journal Article · · Acta Metall.; (United States)

The heats of formation in intermetallic alloys are calculated within a tight-binding scheme for the d band. The difference in bandwidth between the metals and the difference between their energy levels are two dominant effects in determination of the formation energy. The influence of charge transfer on alloy formation is studied.
