“…The interatomic pair potentials created by Chen's lattice inversion method 27,28 are used in our structure optimization. This kind of pair potentials has shown excellent performance in various studies of complicated structures, including phase stability of rare-earth Gd(Fe,T) 12 (T = Cr, Mo, Ti, V, Si) phases, 27 thermodynamic properties of UCu 5 TAl 6 (T = Cr, Mn, Fe), 29 and the dislocation configuration of metal/SiC interfaces. 30 Thirty-six pair-potential functions in Morse-potential form for Al, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, Ti, and Zn are created by Chen's lattice inversion method.…”
