Abstract

ABSTRACTIn Al-Cu alloys containing Guinier-Preston zones, the scattering contributions due to short-range order and atomic displacements vary differently when the scattering contrast between Al and Cu is changed. The diffuse neutron scattering of Al-Cu single crystals containing 63Cu or 65Cu is compared and evaluated to test the current methods of separating the two scattering contributions. - The nature of a sugggtted ordered state in α-brass is also studied by neutron scattering, using Cu to enhance the scattering contrast in a Cu-30 at.% Zn alloy. A broad diffuse peak is found in powdered, appropriately aged samples, confirming that the first Warren-Cowley short-range order parameter is negative.
