Abstract

Methodology of the Monte Carlo simulation of vacancy mediated self- and inter-diffusion is presented and illustrated by the results obtained in the case B2 ordering triple-defect binary intermetallics. The kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) algorithm was implemented with local configuration dependent migration barriers and temperature dependent equilibrium vacancy concentration determined by means of semi grand canonical Monte Carlo (SGCMC) simulations. The inversion of the relationship between the Ni and Al-diffusivities in Al-rich Ni-Al systems deduced from the features of experimentally investigated interdiffusion in Ni- Al was perfectly reproduced by direct self-diffusion simulations. The origin of the phenomenon was elucidated in terms of an increase of the NNN Al jump frequency caused by the generation of structural Ni-vacancies. KMC simulations of diffusion couple experiment were performed by incorporating physical model of vacancy source and sinks and assuming that equilibrium vacancy concentration in the system is achieved much faster than the equilibrium atomic configuration. Semi grand canonical Monte Carlo (SGCMC) algorithm implemented in the KMC code generated on-line vacancy concentrations locally equilibrated according to the virtual atomic configuration in the sample. The evaluated interdiffusion coefficients, as well as the correlation and Kirkendal effects resulting from the simulation of Ising type models of binary disordered and ordered systems were analyzed.
