Electronic Properties and Stability of the TiAl3 and MoPt2 Type Ordered Structures in Binary Transition Metal Alloys

Abstract

ABSTRACTIn view of the recent constitution diagrams (for binary transition metal alloys) a systematic study of the electronic properties of all alloys which have either the TiAl3 or MoPt2 type of structure has been undertaken. Specific heat results are reported and briefly discussed in the frame of the theoretical calculations about band structure and stability of ordered alloys.
