Abstract
The Zr terminal portion of the Zr-Ni phase diagram has been evaluated by means of a many-body tight-binding potential. The internal energy curves of the Zr(Ni) solid solutions at T=300 K have been calculated by Molecular Dynamics simulations. These curves exhibit positive values, contrary to former empirical phase diagram calculations. Implications of these results relevant to the problem of amorphization in metallic systems by solid-state reactions are discussed.
