Abstract

An accurate MEAM (modified embedded atom method) potential including angular dependence for TiAl compound has been developed. The properties of TiAl compound can be reproduced well. With this potential, the distribution of Nb atoms in L10 type TiAl compound with various compositions is calculated by using an average-atom model similar to B-W (Bragg-Williams) method. The results of calculation show that Nb atoms prefer to occupy the Ti sublattice of L10 structure, and with the atomic percent increase of Nb and Al, Nb atoms exhibit a trend of ordered distribution in Ti sublattice, resulting in the formation of L10 derivative superlattice structure.
