Short-range order and phase stability of CrCoNi explored with machine learning potentials

We present an analysis of temperature-dependent atomic short-range ordering and phase stability of the face-centered cubic CrCoNi medium-entropy alloy employing a combination of ab initio calculations and on-lattice machine learning interatomic potentials. Temperature-dependent properties are studied with canonical Monte Carlo simulations. At...

Phonons in magnetically disordered materials: Magnetic versus phononic time scales

The lattice dynamics in magnetic materials, such as Fe depends on the degree of disorder of the atomic magnetic moments and the time scale of spin fluctuations. Using first-principles methods, we have studied this effect by determining the force constant matrix in two limits: (i) When spin fluctuations are much faster than the atom vibrations...
