Abstract
The structure factor of amorphous (Pt 8 Ni.2)73 P27 obtained by liquid quenching was determined by the energy dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDXD) technique up to 24 Å-1, resolving nine peaks. The radial distribution function (RDF) is free of termination errors, and shows the high degree of disorder in this alloy and a clear separation of the Pt-P peak from the main Pt-Pt first peak.
