Abstract
AbstractEXAFS and XANES analysis have been applied in a study of ball-milled nano-crystalline iron-nickel alloys prepared with overall compositions spanning the two-phase region. EXAFS analysis was used to determine bond distances for like and unlike atom pairs in single phase face-centered cubic Fe-Ni alloys, demonstrating the presence of bond dilation for unlike neighbors. Using XANES analysis, the compositions of the two coexisting solid solutions were determined to characterize the ball-milled two-phase region. The compositions of the coexisting face-centered and body-centered cubic phases were found to be consistent with the overall composition of the mixture. The results obtained for the negative heat-of-mixing Fe-Ni system were used for comparison to the positive heat-of-mixing Fe-Cu system.
