Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 096101 (2005) [4 pages]Suppression of Capillary Wave Broadening of Interfaces in Binary Alloys due to Elastic InteractionsReceived 3 December 2004; published 24 August 2005 By Monte Carlo simulations in the constant-temperature–constant-pressure ensemble a planar interface between unmixed A-rich and B-rich phases of a binary (A, B) alloy on a compressible diamond lattice is studied. No significant capillary wave broadening of the concentration profile across the interface is observed, unlike lattice models of incompressible mixtures and fluids. The distortion of the lattice structure across the interface is studied. © 2005 The American Physical Society URL:
