Relative stability of LI2, DO22, and DO23 structures in MAl3 compounds

Abstract: The structural energy differences between cubic LI2 and tetragonal DO22 crystal structures are calculated for MAl3 compounds, where M is a group III, IV, or V transition metal. The stability of the DO22 structure relative to L12 increases rapidly as the transition-metal d-electron count increases. Typical values of E(DO22) – E(L12) are 0.1–0.15 eV/atom (9600–14500 J/g-atom) for group III,  0.05 eV/atom ( 4800 J/g-atom) for group IV, and ∼ –0.2 eV/atom (∼ –19000 J/g-atom) for group V trialuminides.

“…We expect this discussion to be valid for other alloys in the DO 22 structure. Also, previous calculations predicted that the stability of the DO 22 structure increases rapidly as the transition-metal d-electron count increases, 7 which has been demonstrated since the Fermi-level DOS is lower in Al 3 Nb and Al 3 Ta than that in Al 3 Ti.…”

“…However, their practical applications are limited because of high brittleness and poor ductility at room temperature. These undesirable properties are immediately related to the structural properties: Al 3 Sc crystallises in the cubic L1 2 structure, while Al 3 (Ti,V) adopt the tetragonal D0 22 structure [4][5][6]. The observed poor ductility is attributed to the insufficient number of slip planes in the tetragonal structure to satisfy the von Mises criterion for slip deformation of polycrystalline aggregates [7,8].…”
