Abstract

A single crystal of Al4(Cr,Fe) grown by the Czochralski method has been investigated using X-ray and also neutron diffraction. The average structure of this crystal with a composition of Al79.1Cr17.8Fe3.1 was found to be body-centered orthorhombic with the space group Immm. Using neutrons it was possible to distinguish the Fe and Cr positions within the structure. However, the diffraction patterns of both, X-ray as well as neutrons, showed additional reflections beyond the Bragg reflections violating the body-centering and reducing the space group symmetry to Pmm2. A renewed structure analysis taking also these additional reflections into account exhibits significant changes of about 30 % of the atomic positions. Features related to extra diffraction phenomena beyond the Bragg reflections are discussed in some detail.
