Effect of mixed partial occupation of metal sites on the phase stability of γ-Cr23− x Fe x C6 (x = 0–3) carbides
Abstract The effect of mixed partial occupation of metal sites on the phase stability of the γ-Cr23−x Fe x C6 (x = 0–3) carbides is explored as function of composition and temperature. Ab initio calculations combined with statistical thermodynamics approaches reveal that the site occupation of the c...
