The influence of quenched-in vacancies on the ordering rate of the Cu3Au alloy

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

The development of order below the critical temperature in fully disordered Cu3Au specimens is enhanced by quenched-in lattice vacancies. From the ordering rate and from the decrease in resistivity due to order the activation energies for vacancy formation (1.00±0.06) eV and for vacancy migration (0.72±0.06) eV are deduced. It is also noticed that the ordering process displays some anomalous features whenever the quenching temperature is above 600 °C.

Riassunto

Lo svilupparsi della struttura ordinata al disotto della temperatura critica, a partire da campioni di lega Cu3Au totalmente disordinati, risulta accelerato dalla presenza di vacanze reticolari introdotte mediante tempra. Le energie di attivazione per formazione e migrazione delle vacanze reticolari (rispettivamente (1.00±0.06) eV e (0.72±0.06) eV) vengono dedotte dai ritmi di ordinamento osservati e dalla decrescita di resistività dovuta allo stato di ordine. Vengono discusse alcune caratteristiche anomale del processo di ordinamento che si osservano qualora la temperatura di tempra sia superiore a 600 °C circa.
