Effects of C impurities on the elastic properties of NiAl intermetallics

The atomic configuration and ductility of NiAl intermetallics affected by C impurity have been studied with a first-principles pseudo-potential method. The calculation results indicate that for the substitutional cases, C prefers to replace Ni other than Al in most of the cases except for the Ni-ric...
