Short-range order in binary and multiple principal element alloys: A review
Fig. 1. Schematic representations of the three types of SRO that can exist stably in a crystalline alloy system: (a) statistical order; (b) microdomain model; (c) disperse models. In each case, the average unit cell of each box is the same. In the disperse and microdomain models, the ordered region is outlined in blue.
Fig. 2. Variations in electrical resistivity of equiatomic Cr–Co–Ni polycrystals quenched from 1473 K during isothermal annealing at various temperatures ranging from 573 to 973 K.
Fig. 3. Schematic of heat evolved during DSC testing of CrCoNi. Below around 748 K, the kinetics are too slow to change the CSRO on the experimental timescale. Above 748 K, CSRO can be either created (purple shading) or destroyed (red shading), as indicated by exothermic and endothermic reactions, respectively.
