Figure 3
Unit cell and different average structures of cF464 intermetallics, shown using the example of Al63.6Ta36.4. The average structures shown correspond to the assumption of (2×2×2)-, (3×3×3)- and (6×6×6)-fold superstructures. The unit-cell parameters are approximately 19.2 Å for the original unit cell and 9.6, 6.4 and 3.2 Å for the respective average structures. The underlying basic structures are of the -brass-, NaTl- and CsCl-type. |
