Direct Imaging Using Scanning Tunneling Microscopy of the Atomic Structure in Amorphous Co1-xPx

  • Chapter
Ordering and Disordering in Alloys

Abstract

STM images of the free surface of electrodeposited amorphous CoP alloys have been obtained, in the scale of 50 Å to 1400 Å. From images showing atomic resolution the interatomic distances for first neighbours have been measured and the radial distribution function (extrapolated to three dimensions) has been calculated, showing two peaks which are in agreement with results obtained from scattering experiments for samples of similar composition. Calorimetric and magnetic characterization of the samples have also been carried out.
