Configurational lattice dynamics: The phase diagram of Rh-Pd

Free energies of Rh-Pd alloys as functions of both temperature and composition are calculated using quasiharmonic lattice dynamics. The free energy of the disordered solid is determined from an ensemble of a large number of randomly generated configurations. Both configurational and vibrational cont...

description Free energies of Rh-Pd alloys as functions of both temperature and composition are calculated using quasiharmonic lattice dynamics.
