Description

The temperature dependence of the quadrupole interaction of 111Cd in In0.95 Ag0.045 Ga0.005 alloy is determined by the time differential perturbed angular correlation (TDPAC) method from 80 to 422 K. The electric field gradients produced by the lattice in the alloy are derived. The temperature dependence of the electric field gradient follows T3/2 law: Vzz(T) = Vzz(O) (1-BT3/2) with slope B = 7.48(47) · 10-5 K-3/2. The FWHM's of the electric field gradient are 0.1147(259), 0.0924(340) and 1.344(175) at 80, 298 and 422 K, respectively. This indicates that the characteristics of the lattice structure of the alloy are better at 80 and 298 K than at 422 K
