摘要
We have developed 32-atom special quasi-random structures (SQSs) to model the substitutionally random pseudo-binary A(3)(B0.5C0.5) alloys in L1(2), D0(19), and D0(3) crystal structures, respectively. First-principles SQS calculations are performed to examine the phase stability of the recently identified L1(2)-Co3Al0.5W0.5 compound in the Co-Al-W ternary system. By computing total energy as a function of applied strain, the single-crystal elastic constants of L1(2)-Co3Al0.5W0.5 are also predicted and our results show excellent agreement with recent experimental measurements.
