“…In order to characterize the resistivity of metal materials, the free-electron theory in metal conductors was first put forward by Paul Drude, that is, when passing through metal lattice, free electrons collide with the positive ions in the metal lattice to scatter and obey the Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution under the action of electric field formed by positive ions in the metal lattice, thus generating the resistivity; the electron scattering motion described by this model is quite different from the reality, and then after the establishment of Fermi Dirac statistical theory, according to the combination with crystal band theory, it is believed that the potential field inside the idealized complete metal crystal has complete periodicity, which means that the scattering probability of external current electrons under the action of lattice potential field energy is 0 when making a transition under the action of electric field of external power supply, so the characteristic that the resistivity is 0 due to the obstruction of external current electrons does not exist in the metal material . However, in the actual situation, the positive ions in the metal will deviate from the original lattice point due to thermal vibration at a certain temperature and trigger the deformation of the original lattice and the dissolving other elements in metal, which both cause the changes in the periodic potential field of the original crystal under ideal conditions, thus the occurrence of scattering during the passing of the above external current will form resistivity, and then Ma Xisen, a famous British mathematician, put forward the empirical model of resistivity calculation (Matthiessen Rule) for low-concentration solid solution alloys; however, in recent years, the wide application and appearance of high-concentration solid solution alloys such as superalloys, high-entropy alloys, etc., as well as the large linear deviation between the resistivity predicted by Matthiessen Rule and the actual measured results in some low-concentration solid solution alloys, have all pushed scholars to further conduct researches on electronic spectrum of dilute solid solutions. − Thereby it is found that when other elements are added into alloy matrix element, they will show the short-range order of the solid solution after their rearrangement in the solid solution stage through the interactions between atoms, thus forming a short-range order model, while at the same time, the increasing contents of solid solution elements (from dilute solid solution to high solid solution) will make this short-range order structure gradually evolve into a long-range order structure or even a complete order structure in the whole solid solution structure. Based on this, an important thought to use chemical short-range order structure of solid solution for the characterization of alloy resistivity − was first proposed by Professor Tian Shan (1985) of the University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, thus associating the microscopic cluster model of alloy solid solution with the macroscopic resistivity.…”
