Theoretical studies on the relationship between the thermionic work functions of refractory-metal intermetallic compounds and their electronic and crystal structures Final summary report

The Group VIA-Re binary systems are characterized by the presence of several intermediate phases. The u phase is present in all of the systems, but the a-Mn phases occur in only the Mo-Re and W-Re systems. The occurrence of these intermediate phases appears to be governed largely by electronic factors and is predictable on the basis of electron/atom ratio. The thermionic work functions of the intermediate phase materials were experimentally determined. function and the screening of the outermost electrons in the Group VIA metals was found. A correlation between the work As might be expected for purely metallic substances, the work functions were relatively high, in the range 4. 5 to 5. 0 eV, and in each case were bracketed by the work functions of the pure constituents. A discontinuous change in the average work function with composition is proposed, based on a thermodynamical treatment of the electron vapor.

Crystal structure analysis of intermetallic compounds

Study concerns crystal structures and lattice parameters for a number of new intermetallic compounds. Crystal structure data have been collected on equiatomic compounds, formed between an element of the Sc, Ti, V, or Cr group and an element of the Co or Ni group. The data, obtained by conventional methods, are presented in an easily usable tabular form.
