Monte Carlo simulations of the L10 long-range order relaxation in dimensionally reduced systems
Abstract
Monte Carlo simulations have been performed to investigate the relaxation of the L10 long-range order in dimensionally reduced systems. The effect of the number of (001)-type monatomic layers and of the pair interaction energies on these kinetics has been examined. The vacancy migration energies have been deduced from the Arrhenius plots of the relaxation times. A substantial increase in the migration energy for small film thickness is observed. The results agree with previous Monte Carlo simulations and with recent experimental results in L10 thin films and multilayers.
