Abstract

We present comparisons of kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) simulations of isothermal short-range ordering (SRO) and clustering (SRC) kinetics in binary FCC alloys with a mean-field concentration wave (CW) model. We find that the CW model is able to give order-of-magnitude agreement with kMC simulations for ordering/clustering relaxation times over a wide range of temperatures and compositions. The advantage of the CW model is that it does not require parameterization of vacancy hopping energy barriers, which, for a concentrated alloy, becomes prohibitive. We assess limits in the accuracy of the model, and discuss the effect of cooling rates as well as the extension to multi-component systems. Ultimately, the simplicity and performance of the CW model compared to kMC simulations suggests that it is a useful tool to connect with models of properties dependent on SRO/SRC as well as for designing thermal treatments to control formation of SRO/SRC.
