Abstract

The short-range order in the near surface region of the Cu3Au(001) face was investigated above the critical temperature by glancing-incidence x-ray diffraction, measuring the diffuse intensity throughout a two-dimensional region of reciprocal space. This intensity was analyzed quantitatively to obtain the two-dimensional Cowley–Warren short-range-order parameters and atomic displacements. Monte-Carlo simulation based on these values has revealed that the atomic configurations in the surface consist of ordered domains and clusters in a disordered matrix. There is a large number of {10} antiphase domain boundaries (APDB).
