Sensitivity of the diffuse scattering function to short-range compositional order and its effects. (a) Calculated diffuse scattering patterns for KCl0.5Br0.5 considering only compositional order, as characterised by the Warren–Cowley parameter α (see text). Only one quadrant of the hk0 section is shown, such that the centre of reciprocal space lies at the bottom-left corner of each image. (b) Corresponding diffuse scattering patterns calculated after allowing relaxation of atomic positions according to the empirical potential reported in Catlow et al. (1977) ![]() ![]() |
