Theoretical evidence for specificity of metal-metalloid interactions in Fe-Ni-P-B glasses

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6788256
Detailed quantum mechanical calculations are carried out on clusters of atoms which simulate possible local environments in amorphous metal alloys. The clusters used are based on simple Bernal polyhedra and distortions of these polyhedra. The materials being studied are the (Fe, Ni, B, P) alloys. The simplest Bernal polyhedron, the tetrahedron, is considered as a first model for the local environment in Fe/sub 40/Ni/sub 40/B/sub 20/ and Fe/sub 40/Ni/sub 40/P/sub 20/ alloys.
