Theoretical And Experimental Investigation Of ThermodynamicsStructure, Vibrational And Interfacial Properties Of Amorphous Metals

我们将通过理论和实验相结合的方法来研究金属玻璃及其表面和界面的结构和性质之间的关系。具体地说，将研究热力学、振动和界面性质。用中子衍射法产生并分析了纳米团簇，并与嵌入原子法的计算机模拟结果进行了比较。热力学性质将通过电动势测量和差示扫描量热法确定。

The relationship between structure and properties of metallic glasses and their surfaces and interfaces will be studied in a combined theoretical and experimental effort. Specifically, thermodynamic, vibrational and interfacial properties will be studied. Nano clusters will be produced and analyzed by neutron diffraction and the results compared with computer simulations using the embedded atom method. Thermodynamic properties will be determined from emf measurements and by using differential scanning calorimetry.
