Abstract
The scattered-wave method is used to calculate electron spectra of central Ni 8Ti, Ti8Ni, and Ti 8Al nanoclusters in nanoparticles of (Ni 26Ti64) Al1 and (Ti 26Ni64) Al1 alloys in the B2 structure. The single Al atom is shown to have a better chance for accommodation on the titanium sublattice because of high binding energy.
