An accurate prediction of atomic diffusion in Fe alloys is challenging due to thermal
magnetic excitations and magnetic transitions. We propose an efficient approach to address
these properties via a Monte Carlo simulation, using ab initio–based effective interaction
models. The temperature evolution of self-and Cu diffusion coefficients in α-iron are
successfully predicted, particularly the diffusion acceleration around the Curie point, which
requires a quantum treatment of spins. We point out a dominance of magnetic disorder over …
An accurate prediction of atomic diffusion in Fe alloys is challenging due to thermal magnetic excitations and magnetic transitions. We propose an efficient approach to address these properties via a Monte Carlo simulation, using ab initio–based effective interaction models. The temperature evolution of self- and Cu diffusion coefficients in -iron are successfully predicted, particularly the diffusion acceleration around the Curie point, which requires a quantum treatment of spins. We point out a dominance of magnetic disorder over chemical effects on diffusion in the very dilute systems.
