Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Simulation of the Amorphous Structure of Ca-Mg-Cu and Ca-Mg-Zn Alloys (Preprint)
Abstract
The atomic structures of several Ca-Mg-Cu and Ca-Mg-Zn amorphous alloys have been determined using ab initio molecular dynamics simulation and neutron diffraction. Partial pair distribution functions have been produced and the pair bond distances and partial coordination numbers have been reported for these alloys. Similarities and differences in the amorphous structures of the Ca-Mg-Cu and Ca-Mg-Zn alloys have been discussed.
