We investigate phase stability and vacancy formation in fcc Fe-Ni alloys over a broad
composition-temperature range, via a density functional theory parametrized effective …

Abstract Special Quasi-random Structures (SQSs) are often used to model disordered alloys
in small simulation cells. Yet, SQS-based sampling yields chemical potentials (and other …

The application is discussed of neutron methods to the study of reentrant spin glasses
(RSGs), close to the transition towards acanonical'spin glass (SG). The focus is on two …

Chemically ordered L 1 0 (Fe 100− x Cr x) Pt thin films were expitaxially grown on MgO
(001) substrates by magnetron sputter-deposition at 770∘ C. In this sample series, Fe was …

We study the thermodynamic properties of iron-chromium alloys in the framework of the
Magnetic Cluster Expansion, a model of effective interactions explicitly taking into account …

Abstract Fe/Cr/Fe trilayers and multilayers are prepared as model systems designed to
furnish simple data comparable with calculation results for diffusion properties in nuclear …

In the iron–chromium system, Fe x Cr 1− x, a wide dome of spin-glass behavior emerges
when the ferromagnetism of iron is suppressed and the antiferromagnetism of chromium …

High Cr ferritic martensitic steels are good candidates as structural or cladding materials for
the next generation of nuclear power plants (generation IV and fusion reactors). The addition …
