Abstract

First principles electronic structure calculations, using the layer Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method, are reported for isolated planar faults in TiAl. The calculated fault energies are discussed in the context of suggested superdislocation separation reactions. The influence of dilute impurities on fault energies are treated using the coherent potentialapproximation. Using this approach, the variation of fault energies in TiAl resulting from stoichiometry changes and from the addition of Mn axe calculated, and compared to recent experimental data.
