Abstract

The energies and configurations of interstitials and vacancies in the ordered compound CuTi were calculated using atomistic simulation. Vacancies created by the removal of either a Cu or Ti atom resulted in a vacant Cu site, with an antisite defect in the latter case. The vacancy at the Cu site was found to be very mobile within two adjacent (001) Cu planes, resulting in two dimensional migration. Interstitials created by inserting either a Cu or Ti atom had complicated configurations containing one or more antisite defects.
