Structure and element distribution in the UFe10-x Al x Si2 system

  • Published:
Journal of Phase Equilibria

Abstract

The neutron diffraction studies of powdered alloys withx = 2,2.5, and 3 gave detailed information on crystallographic data of the compounds. The structure refinement at 300 K for allx = 2,2.5, and 3 and at 450 K forx = 2 confirmed the ThMn12 type of structure with uranium located in 2(a) positions, iron in 8(f), 8(i), and 8(j) positions, aluminum atoms in 8(i) and 8(j) positions, and Si atoms in 8(f) and 8(j) positions. Impurity phases, FeAl and UFe2Si2 have been detected in all investigated compounds.
