Abstract | originating from the large affinity between Al and Sm atoms, and the intrinsic repulsion between Sm atoms gives rise to a stronger correlation in the second peak than the first peak in the Sm-Sm partial pair correlation function (PPCF), which in turn produces the prepeak in the structure factor. |
