Abstract
Calculation of surface energy of L12-type A3B ordering alloy was made on the basis of a broken bond model using Bragg-Williams approximation. Prior to the calculation of surface energy, calculation of broken bond density in the same alloy was made. Numerical results for Cu3Au alloy were presented as functions of surface orientation and degree of order. Applying Wulff's theorem to calculated γ-plots of the alloy, their external equilibrium shapes for the alloy with various degree of order (η) were predicted.
