Nanosized particles of $\omega$ phase in a $\beta$-Ti alloy were investigated by small-angle X-ray scattering using synchrotron radiation. We demonstrated that the particles are spontaneously weakly ordered in a three-dimensional cubic…

Nonanalytic chemical short-range order (SRO) has long been observed in diffuse scattering experiments for metallic alloys. However, considerable debate surrounds the validity of these observations due to the unresolved nature of the…

Distribution of Cr atoms in Fe_{100-x}Cr_x alloys with x \le 25 within the first two coordination shells, 1NN-2NN, around probe 57Fe atoms was studied by means of the M\"ossbauer Spectroscopy. Clear evidence was found that the distribution…

Phase diagrams exhibiting extended solid-solution and lens-like melting are often reproduced using ideal solutions, where ideal mixing considers a fully random configurational entropy of mixing. In the field of irreversible thermodynamics,…

Structure-property relationships in ordered materials have long been a core principle in materials design. However, the intentional introduction of disorder into materials provides structural flexibility and thus access to material…

The structural properties of the $Zn_xMg_{1-xS_ySe_{1-y}}$ solid solutions are determined by a combination of the computational alchemy and the cluster expansion methods with Monte Carlo simulations. We determine the phase diagram of the…

We present theoretical study of ordering phenomena in binary $C_{1-x}B_{x}$, $C_{1-x}N_{x}$ and ternary $B_{x}C_{1-x-y}N_{y}$ alloys forming two-dimensional, graphene-like systems. For calculating energy of big systems (20 000 atoms in the…

Metallic alloys often form phases - known as solid solutions - in which chemical elements are spread out on the same crystal lattice in an almost random manner. The tendency of certain chemical motifs to be more common than others is known…

Low-dimensional Si-based semiconductors are unique materials that can both match well with the Si-based electronics and satisfy the demand of miniaturization in modern industry. Owing to the lack of such materials, many researchers put…

Three-dimensional topological insulators have been studied for approximately fifteen years, but those made from group-IV elements, especially Ge and Sn, seem particularly attractive owing to their nontoxicity, sizable intrinsic spin-orbit…

Superlevel partitioning is combined with a simple relaxation procedure to construct an iterative technique for solving equations of statistical equilibrium. In treating an $N$-level model atom, the technique avoids the $N^{3}$ scaling in…

We developed an analytic theory of inhomogeneous superconducting pairing in strongly disordered materials, which are moderately close to superconducting-insulator transition. Single-electron eigenstates are assumed to be Anderson-localized,…

Short range order and topology of Ge$_x$S$_{100-x}$ glasses over a broad composition range (20 $\le$ x $\le$ 42 in at%) was investigated by neutron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, and Ge K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure…

Mixtures of bare atomic nuclei on a nearly uniform degenerate electron background are a realistic model of matter in the interior of white dwarfs. Despite tremendous progress in understanding their phase diagrams achieved mainly via…

The short range order in Ge$_{30}$Ga$_{5}$Sb$_{10}$Se$_{55}$ and Ge$_{21}$Ga$_{5}$Sb$_{10}$Se$_{64}$ glasses was investigated by X-ray (XRD) and neutron diffraction (ND) as well as extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS)…

The phase coexistence of chemically ordered L1_0 and chemically disordered structures within binary alloys is investigated, using the NiMn system as an example. Theoretical and numerical predictions of the signatures one might expect in…

Soft-X-ray emission and absorption spectroscopies with their elemental specificity are used to determine the local electronic structure of N atoms in Ga(In)AsN diluted semiconductor alloys (N concentrations about 3%) in view of applications…

We investigate the crystallization of amorphous arsenic-selenium alloys with 0%, 0.5%, 2%, 6%, 10%, and 19% arsenic by atomic concentration using synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy. We identify crystalline order using the extended…

Even if the atoms of a multicomponent alloy occupy a common lattice, their distribution is not homogeneous, and regions with different compositions can be detected. Three representative examples will be discussed: a Cantor-type system…

Ge_(1-x)Sn_x alloys have proved difficult to form at large x, contrary to what happens with other group IV semiconductor combinations. However, at low x they are typical examples of well-behaved substitutional compounds, which is desirable…
