Abstract |
The diffusion of particles in concentrated lattice gases is studied by Monte Carlo methods, assuming a fcc lattice with repulsive nearest-neighbor interaction. Particular attention is paid to the influence of ordering on the diffusion properties, since the model has ordered superstructures at low temperatures T near the stoichiometric concentrations c=14, 12, and 34 . Both the self-diffusion of tagged particles and the collective diffusion by which concentration fluctuations decay are obtained. In the ordered regions both diffusivities are rather small due to a strong decrease of the effective jump rate of the particles. The correlation factor f(T,c) for self-diffusion has a pronounced non-monotonic concentration dependence for low temperatures. This is interpreted by reducing the problem near T=0 and the limits c→14−,12− to an effective single-vacancy problem, and c→14+,12+to an effective single-particle problem. Other lattices are briefly discussed.
