Abstract

Ag–Au; Cd–Pb Four-atom-cluster-model Ga–Zn Warren–Cowley short range order parameter
A model based on the calculation of conditional probabilities has been used to gain further insight into the energetics of liquid Ag–Au, Cd–Pb, and Ga–Zn alloys. The model used enables us to explain the observed characteristic feature of these alloys. Thus, we note that Cd–Pb, and Ga–Zn are segregating liquid alloys while Ag–Au exhibits a significant tendency for compound formation. Also, the degree of segregation in Cd–Pb is larger than that in Ga–Zn.
