Abstract

Molecular Dynamics calculations of atomic displacements in pure copper and copper-gold alloys were performed to study atomic size effect. The alloys was chosen due to a large size mismatch and the existence of embedded-atom potentials. The potentials are corrected to match the lattice constants. The nearest neighbor bond length crossover is calculated in all systems. The theoretical diffuse scattering intensity agrees well with the experimentally observed values for pure copper.
