Temperature-dependent x-ray diffraction study of Pd/Cu site interchange in non-Fermi liquid UCu4Pd

Description

A pair distribution function (PDF) analysis of temperature-dependent x-ray diffraction measurements from UCu4Pd is presented. Fits to the displacement parameters (u2's) with a Debye model show better agreement with a model that includes 25% of the Pd atoms on 16e (Cu) sites. In addition, significant non-thermal disorder is observed in the Cu environment, in contrast to previous measurements of local order in the U-Cu pairs
