TO: Professor Ernest H. Swift;
FROM: Linus Pauling
SUBJECT: Dr. Babin
I recommend that Dr. Babin be given immediately an increase in salary of $300 per year, and a second increase of $300 per year when his appointment for the coming year becomes effective. His work is quite satisfactory, and he should not be below our minimum scale.

Dear Peter:
It seems to me that we got a strange letter with a check (excuse me, cheque) from you some time ago. I didn't understand, and I'm afraid that the passage of time hasn't helped any. Anyway, Merry Christmas.
Life here continues on. Last summer I won a series of sailing races before giving up racing, and would have gotten a trophy had I gone to the awards banquet. My work continues, but slowly. I finally passed the goddam german exam, on the third try, and have my orals soon. I hope to finish up next summer, but in the rare moments that I pretend at realism I'm sure I won't. God knows. Every time I run into your friend E. C. Lingafelter (you remember??) he says hello and asks how things are going. Real camaraderie. With parental assistance and mostly due to parental persuasion we have bought our house. Quite nice. I wish that I could get a job here. It is really quite nice here. No snow.
Bloody shame about Linus and Anita. [...] I suppose that I ought to write her, but it will be hard not to say what I think. I ought to write to Linus as well, but at least Lucy has. Lucy is pretty good about that sort of thing. In fact, Lucy is the ideal wife. I don't know how I rate. Linus apparently is going to S. Calif., sometime soon. Maybe I'll fly down there. I have eyes on the ex-Peter Porsche, but not much hope.
Do you remember Bill McCormick, from Cal-Tech. He used to have a snazzy TC model MG. He is here now, in Physics. He does work in low temperature physics, whatever that is. He has a new Porsche, the bastard. Anyway he’s been out a time or two. [...]
The brats are thriving. Right now they all have some sort of belly flu, and are miserable, but generally they are fine. The boy is now over two, and has developed a remarkable vocabulary. He hasn't quite caught on to stringing words together to make sentences, but tone the less he communicates quite well. The girls are growing at a fantastic rate; Cheryl will be in the first grade next fall. They both write quite well if we tell them how to spell, and I think Cheryl is beginning to recognize a few basic words. I'm sorry I don't have any pictures; it takes a while to get around to taking them, and then forever to make prints. Maybe I should take my negatives to the corner drug store.
There is a jerk in Maths whose new number plates on his car read ASL 300. The A is for King county; guess what kind of car the bastard has? I wonder how many palms he had to grease???
I saw a paper of yours some time ago in Nature. I didn't understand it. I still hear from my friends in chemistry about your seminar. It apparently made quite an impression. I'm hoping to go to the International Congress of Genetics at The Hague, first week of September. Perhaps I'll see you if you’re home then. I've forgotten how to type.
Love from
Crellin

Dear Ruth:
I am pleased to learn from your letter that you have written a review of Melman’s book and another hook, to appear in the next issue of the Bulletin.
When I wrote you I had not seen the Clemens review. I have been interested in having the Bulletin publish a good review of Melman’s book, and I look forward to seeing what you have written.
I agree that the death of Topchiev was a great blow for the Pugwash meetings. I have felt closer to Topchiev than to any other Soviet scientist.
Cordially,

Dear Professor Harris:
I am writing in support of Professor Kurt Mislow - I understand from your letter that you are considering the possibility of giving him a senior staff appointment.
I knew Mislow well when he was a graduate student - much of his work was done under my supervision. He is a very able chemist, with excellent training in organic chemistry and with a good understanding of physical chemistry, physics, and some aspects of biology.
In his work he has shown unusual originality and a great amount of industry. I judge that he is a good teacher, although I have not had much opportunity to get information about his teaching.
So far as I am aware, his character is unimpeachable. He is a pleasant man, with a good personality.
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling:lh

8 February 1963
TO: Dr. Gustav Albrecht
FROM: Linus Pauling
SUBJECT: Subjects for Research
There are two subjects that I should like you to think about during the coming two or three weeks, to see whether or not we might write papers about them, perhaps for publication in the Journal of Chemical Education. I think that these papers would in part be review papers and in part be contributions to knowledge.
First, there is the matter of carbenes. I have given you the carbon copy of Chapter 10 of College Chemistry, with a section on the carbenes. Would you look through the literature and gather some more general information about them? Professor George Hammond, in organic chemistry, gave me some information and references, and it might be worthwhile for you to talk with him. I think that you would have a good idea about what aspects of carbene chemistry would be worth mentioning in an article in the Journal of Chemical Education.
In the carbene section of Chapter 10 I have given an argument about the energy (enthalpy) of carbene. I think that this argument has not been published. Herzberg in the Canadian Journal of Physics has given some information, some of which is on the attached sheet. The bond length in the singlet state and the triplet state may not be certain. For the triplet state Herzberg says that if the molecule is linear the bond length would be 1.03, if 140º for the bond angle, the bond length would be 1.07 Å. I think that this means the molecule is bent.
The second paper that we might write is on double bonds with chlorine, sulfur, phosphorus, and silicon, an analysis of enthalpy values. Some of this is in the manuscript. I think that it would make a good paper for Journal of Chemical Education.

Dear Crellin and Lucy,
Many thanks for your letter which I was pleased to get. I should try harder to communicate more often.
The $150 is primarily for $135 that I owe you from 18 months ago. So you owe me $15 which I shall keep on account. And then you suggested a year and something ago that I take some of the $135 and get myself a coat for Christmas 1961. Having just lastest the coldest winter since 1758 we have about decided to get me a coat and if you still wish to contribute to it that would be very nice. You also suggested getting something for our house. I am trying to get Mamma to get me a wall sconce from some upstate museum in New York I saw in Consumer's Reports for November but she has not come through.
Our house is going but slowly. I underestimated the amount of work involved in planning and specifying the works by a couple of orders of magnitude. I think we are now on the home stretch though and will be able to enjoy it in all its magnificence by the next election.
I too am disturbed by Linus and Anita's new plans. [...] I look forward to seeing Linus and talking to him somewhat to see how he is and what he is doing.
Our plans are rather uncertain at the moment. If someone comes through with rather large amounts of support we may be spending the summer in Pasadena. I want to build an instrument and at present plan to got to Southern California to build it this summer. It does depend, however, on some outfit coughing up the money. I do not know the chances of that. It may be more than 50%. It will be a shame to miss you here though, I hope you are coming to this meeting. David Wilkie mentioned it to me and suggested that you would probably come.
Why have you given up sailing? I think it is great fun.
Maybe after all these years I can find some presents to send you. Sarah has we think the measles and the mumps. She is not very happy. Thos is having fairly good fun in school. He is quite happy.
Much love to you both,

Dr. Max Kleiber
University of Hawaii
Honolulu, Hawaii
Dear Dr. Kleiber:
Your letter and a recent talk that I had with Dr. Richard T. Jones have suggested to me that I write to you about him.
A year or two ago I recommended to the University of Hawaii that Dr. Jones be offered an appointment. Dr. Jones was an undergraduate student in the California Institute of Technology, who then went to medical school, obtaining his M.D. degree from the University of Oregon. He interned in the University of Pennsylvania and returned to Pasadena, in order to carry on research under my general direction, on the chemistry of the abnormal hemoglobins. He has made important contributions in this field. He received his Ph.D. degree in chemistry here.
Dr. Jones is now an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the University of Oregon (Portland) in Dr. Osgood's department. I have the feeling that he is not entirely happy. He mentioned to me that he missed the scientific atmosphere of the California Institute of Technology, I know that the scientific atmosphere of the California Institute of Technology is not to be found in the University of Hawaii, but there is a possibility that Dr. Jones could be attracted to Honolulu, if he were given a good offer, with support that would permit him to build up his own department in the field of molecular biology and medicine.
I have a very high opinion of Dr. Jones, from the personal as well as the scientific side, and if you are going to recommend that somebody be given an appointment in Honolulu, you might well wish to consider him.
Cordially yours,

Dear Mr. Gilman:
I am answering your letter to my wife, because she is ill—she has been in bed for a month, but is hoping to be well before long.
A copy of my book has been sent to your brother, with the statement that it is a gift from you. Your check has arrived.
My wife is sorry to learn about the trouble that you have been having with the local WILPF and with Mrs. Smith.
We are looking forward to the visit by Canon Collins to Los Angeles next Sunday, My wife arranged for him to speak in the First Unitarian Church.
Our tour in March under the auspices of the American Friends Service Committee is, I understand, already completely arranged, with no extra time to permit anything else to be introduced. I have to go to a scientific meeting immediately after the tour is over, and give a lecture, and then we must return to Pasadena because of the start of the spring term, and the lectures here that I am scheduled to give
I would be pleased to be interviewed by Mr. and Mrs. Robbins, if they think that it is worth while. My wife and I have suggested to Los Angeles Sane that they get in touch with Alex North—perhaps he could be got interested in the activities of that group.
Cordially yours,

15 February
Dear Peter:
Many thanks for your letter. Quelle surprise! I still think that you shouldn't have sent the $150, in as much as it would most likely be easier for you to keep said funds than to get them out of me again. Oh well, we'll see.
I haven't given up sailing, I have only pretty much given up racing. Successful racing is pretty demanding, and generally frustrating. Last summer I did win a weekend series, a series held for those boats that didn't do too well overall so far during the season. I think my boat isn't the slowest Lightning on the lake, only I don't really know how to sail, and I am too lazy to sign on a regular crew and train them properly. Ha ha. We have had a couple of weeks of lovely, spring-like weather -- temperature in the sixties, sunny, warm days. [...] .
I suppose that I should have explained myself better when I mentioned Linus and Anita's divorce. The letter from Linus disturbed me a good deal, and I have done a bit of thinking about marriage and life, both specifically in reference to them, and to Lucy and myself, and in general.
I think that Lucy and I get on quite well, in spite of rather inauspicious beginnings of our marriage. I think that this relationship is due to perhaps at least two factors, the main one being that we are generally quite compatible, and have found our life together, so far at least, quite satisfactory. I think another factor in the success of our marriage is an unwillingness on the part of each of us to see our marriage fail. Whenever there have been strains in our relationship we have both worked, and worked hard, to overcome them. As a result our marriage is such that I cannot offhand think of any other that I know of that is better, and although I suppose that there are women with whom I might easily have a happy marriage, I quite frankly cannot imagine myself without Lucy, I think she is the perfect wife.
[...]
It is rather hard for me to write this, and I'm not sure that I have really communicated what I feel. I thought Linus was to be in Pasadena this weekend, and I bought an airplane ticket, but he didn't go, so I didn't go. I finally wrote him; I feel terrible about that, but I don t know what the hell to say. Perhaps you are right, though, perhaps there wasn't anything between them. I just don't know.
Our kids have all recently recovered from a case of some terrible flu bug....no food for four days, spitting up all over. We haven't had measles or mumps yet, only chicken pox. We thought Kirstin had the mumps once, and I had a skin test, and had a feeble positive reaction, so maybe I do have antibodies. Anyway I was scared.
Much love
Crellin

Dear Crick:
I am writing about the matter of the three hydrogen bonds between guanine and cytosine. A man giving a seminar on the nucleic acids here a few days ago used the structures with two hydrogen bonds, and said that he supposed that you were still supporting it, as shown, for example, by your article in the Scientific American, which was published after the publication of the paper by Professor Corey and me, in which we pointed out that guanine and cytosine form three hydrogen bonds with one another. He asked me if it did not seem, from your publications, that you and Watson had doubt about the third hydrogen bond.
I trust that you are going to introduce the third hydrogen bond in your published Nobel lecture. I am writing just to be sure that, through oversight, you do not continue to refer to guanine and cytosine as forming two hydrogen bonds with one another.
Cordially yours,
Linus Pauling:lh

Dear Fred:
Ava Helen and I were happy to hear from you. It is fine that you have had such a pleasant trip last November and December. Also I am indeed interested to know that the drug Trilafon is is having a good effect on David. I wish that I understood why different ataractic drugs are valuable for different people.
Ava Helen and I have been busy, as usual. We went to Belgium and Norway in November, and then back to England in January. I took part in a Solvay Congress in Brussels. Then we were invited to lunch (just Ava Helen and me) by Queen Elizabeth, grandmother of the present King of Belgium. She wanted to talk with us about the peace movement in the United States - - she is active in the peace movement in Belgium. In Oslo we spoke at a peace meeting in the Norwegian Nobel Institute. Our trip to England was to attend a peace conference in Oxford and another meeting in London. I had a cold before going, which dragged on, and then Ava Helen got it, so that she had to go to bed when we got home, on 11 January, and has been in bed for about a month. She is just recovering now. We hope to go to the ranch day after tomorrow, for a week of rest.

19 February 1963
Chairman Nikita Khrushchev
Moscow, U.S.S.R.
Dear Chairman Khrushchev:
In 1961 I had the honor to receive a letter from you, in answer to my communications to you.
I am writing now to ask your assistance in connection with the application that has been made by my friend Dr. Isidore Ziferstein for a visa to permit him and his wife to spend a year in the Soviet Union, from April 1963 to April 1964, in order to carry out a study of the dynamic psychotherapy that is practiced in the Soviet Union.
During recent years I have become interested in mental disease, and I have professional reasons for hoping that Dr. Ziferstein will succeed in carrying out his plan. I feel that it should constitute a significant contribution to science and medicine.
My principal reason for writing to you is to tell you that I vouch completely for Dr. Ziferstein's honesty and integrity. He has been a close friend of mine for several years. He is, among all the people in Southern California, one of the most outstanding workers for peace and International cooperation. I can give you the strongest possible personal assurance about the integrity and honesty of Dr. Ziferstein. I believe that a significant service to peace and international cooperation, as well as to science and medicine, would be rendered by their spending a year in the Soviet Union and working in cooperation with Soviet psychiatrists.
For personal reasons Dr. Ziferstein and Mrs. Ziferstein are eager to arrive in the Soviet Union before the middle of April 1963, and then to return to the United States before the beginning of April 1964. I accordingly ask that you take whatever action you can to achieve the issuing of a Soviet visa to them for this period of time.
I have also written to Academician Keldysh, President of the Academy of Sciences of the U.S.S.R., and to Academician Blokhin, President of the Academy of Medical Sciences. Details about the program of work that Dr. Ziferstein plans to carry out, with the assistance of Mrs. Ziferstein, are contained in the letters to them.
Respectfully yours,
Linus Pauling:lh

Nagataku Kobe, JAPAN
Dear Mr. Chikui:
I am pleased to answer your letter of 10 February.
I have read your article on Studies on the Relationship of Redox Reaction and the Change of Atomic Valence or Oxidation Number. I am not sure that there is a significant difference between your discussion and discussions that have formerly "been published, such as in my book on General Chemistry which is available in Japanese. The idea of oxidation number is recognized as rather artificial. It is used for convenience, and there often are reasonable alternative ways of assigning oxidation numbers in the same substance.
With best wishes to you, I am

Abstract
This research proposal seeks support for a program of research on the structure of crystals of complex intermetallic compounds and other alloy phases by x-ray diffraction methods. This research is to be carried out in the Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of the California Institute of Technology with Professor Linus Pauling as principal investigator and Dr. Sten Samson as co-investigator.
A detailed description of the research plans is given below preceded by a brief historical review.
Development of Research on the Structure of Intermetallic Compounds and Other Alloys at the California Institute of Technology
Research on the structural chemistry of metals and alloys has been carried out in the Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of the California Institute of Technology for 40 years. The crystal structure of the compound Mg2Sn was determined by x-ray diffraction and described by Linus Pauling, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 45, 2777 (1923); this was the first publication reporting the determination of the crystal structure of an intermetallic compound. In the same paper mention was made of a study of NaCd2, which was found to be extremely complicated.
An x-ray study of the alloys of lead and thallium was carried out by Edwin McMillan, as a first-year student, in collaboration with Pauling, and published in J. Am. Chem. Soc, 49, 666 (1927). During the following years further experimental studies of metals and intermetallic compounds were carried out; in particular a continued attack was made on the structure of NaCd2, but without success until this problem was solved by Sten Samson in 1962.
The first of a series of theoretical papers on the nature of the bonds in metals and intermetallic compounds was published by Pauling in Phys. Rev., 54, 899 (1938). The theory of resonating chemical bonds in metals and alloys developed in this paper was then extended and refined in later years. The second paper in this field, on atomic radii and interatomic distances in metals, was published in J. Am. Chem. Soc, 69, 542 (1947).
Experimental work on the structure of intermetallic compounds was intensified during the five years subsequent to 1946, when a grant was given to the California Institute of Technology by the Union Carbon and Carbide Company for support of research in this field. At the time of expiration of this grant support of the work was assumed by the Office of Naval Research.
During the last fifteen years special attention has been paid to the determination of the crystal structures of intermetallic compounds with large unit cells and many parameters. The reason for interest in these structures will be discussed later.
Among the interesting structures discovered in the course of these investigations is the structure of the sigma phase, an important phase found in ferrous alloys. This work was carried out by Gunnar Bergman and David Shoemaker and published in Acta Cryst., 7, 857 (1954). A significant step in the direction of determination of structures of greater complexity was the successful attack on the intermetallic compound Mg32(Al, Zn)49 by Linus Pauling, Gunnar Bergman, and John Waugh, Acta Cryst., 7, 857 (1954). This structure, with a large unit containing 162 atoms, provided the basis for the formulation of a series of other very complex structures by Sten Samson. Among these are the structures of Mg3Cr2Al18, Acta Cryst., 11, 851 (1958), and ZrZn22, Acta Cryst., 14, 1229 (1961), both containing 184 atoms per unit cell.
The results of the latter three investigations led to the recognition of certain atomic configurations, especially the icosahedron and the Friauf polyhedron, as significant for the stability of complex intermetallic compounds; and it became apparent that these two coordination polyhedra should dominate in several of the most complex intermetallic compounds known. Samson successfully applied this principle in the derivation of the atomic arrangement for the crystal of NaCd2. The unit of structure is a cube containing 1192 atoms; there are 280 Friauf polyhedra, 528 icosahedra, and 384 irregular polyhedra. This is the most complicated inorganic structure yet determined, but still more complex structures of intermetallic compounds remain to be solved. The structure of NaCd2 is published in Nature, 195, 259 (1962).
During his work on complex structures of intermetallic compounds, Samson developed also a general method which greatly facilitates the synthesis of cubic structures of extreme complexity. This work has recently been submitted for publication.
Current Investigations
The experimental x-ray data used in the work on NaCd2 sufficed to verify the correctness of the proposed atomic arrangement. We now desire to refine the structural parameters to a high degree of accuracy. Absorption errors, for example, need to be reduced by the use of spherically ground crystals. Since, however, the crystals decompose with time; refinement of the experimental procedure requires first of all that the x-ray data be obtainable more efficiently than our present photographic instrumentation permits. The detailed refinement of NaCd2 has therefore been postponed to await adequate instrumentation.
In the meantime structure investigations of the intermetallic compounds Cu4Cd3 and Mg2Al3 are being carried out. Crystals of Cu4Cd3 are cubic, the edge of the unit cell being a0 = 25.83 A. The unit of structure contains about 1116 atoms. At the present stage of our investigation this compound seems to be considerably more complicated than NaCd2. The structure of Mg2Al3, the ß(MgAl) phase, seems on the basis of our present diffraction data to be very similar to that of NaCd2. The unit cell is a cube of edge 28.2 A and contains about 1200 atoms. Samson deduced two reasonable trial structures for this compound, but he is still trying to obtain diffraction data of adequate quality to test the correctness of a trial structure. The crystals so far have always been twinned, but special techniques are now being tried to resolve this difficulty.
Binary magnesium-aluminium compounds and ternary Mg-Al-X compounds (X = transition metal) have been under investigation and reexamination here for some time. Magnesium and aluminium are very similar to one another in electronegativity. Electron transfer is therefore unlikely to occur in compounds formed between these two elements. In ternary compounds Mg-Al-X (X as above) electron transfer is more likely. Previous investigations have shown that structures of such ternary compounds exhibit the same kind of coordination polyhedra (icosahedra, Friauf polyhedra) as those of binary Mg-Al compounds. Detailed analysis of these polyhedra will enable us to study the influence of electron transfer on the interatomic distances between magnesium and aluminium.
The intermetallic compounds VAl10 and Mg3Cr2Al18 have very similar crystal structures, each of which incorporates eight Friauf polyhedra per unit cell. In VAl10 each such polyhedron consists of 16 (4 + 12) aluminium atoms, but in Mg3Cr2Al18 it consists of 4 magnesium atoms, 12-aluminium atoms and one additional magnesium atom which is at the center of the polyhedron. Accordingly, the Friauf polyhedron of VAl10 is empty, while the one of Mg3Cr2Al18 is filled. It seems very likely that if in VAl10 some of the aluminium atoms (3-valent) were replaced by magnesium (2-valent), the polyhedron would fill up, so as to keep the sum of the valencies of the magnesium atoms and the aluminium atoms constant. It seems therefore possible that there exists a homogeneity range that extends from V2Al20 to Mg3V2Al18. An investigation of this part of the ternary system will soon be started.
A detailed study of the γ(MgAl) phase by single-crystal x-ray diffraction has progressed very favorably during the last few months. The phase is body-centered cubic and has a composition range which extends at least from 45 atomic per cent Mg to 59 atomic per cent Mg with a corresponding variation of the cube edge from 10.44 A to 10.60 A. We have succeeded in obtaining single crystals of the two extreme compositions Mg13Al16 and Mg17Al12 and have collected complete sets of intensity data from both crystals. The structural parameters for the first crystal have been refined to the point that R = 0.056. The intensity data obtained from the second crystal are being processed. The crystal of composition Mg13Al16 is highly disordered; it transforms on annealing at about 350°C into a very complicated phase, the β phase. Crystals of the β phase have been obtained and will be studied later. The crystal of composition Mg17Al12, which is supposedly ordered, is stable down to room temperature.
The magnesium atoms have a metallic radius about 15 per cent greater than that of the aluminium atoms. The considerable difference in composition between the two γ(MgAl)-phase crystals, therefore, will have to be associated with differences in size and regularity of those coordination polyhedra in which the disorder takes place. Hence the distribution of the two kinds of atoms over the crystallographically different positions can be traced through detailed metrical analysis of these polyhedra. We have thus obtained strong evidence that in Mg13Al16 the disorder is localized in one of the two crystallographically different Friauf polyhedra in the structure. The calculated metallic valencies are in very good agreement with this result. The "ordered" Friauf polyhedron is almost identical in size and shape with that observed in the Mg3Cr2Al18 structure, while the disordered polyhedron is distorted and larger in size. A similar analysis will soon be made of Mg17Al12.
The crystal of Mg2Al3, the β(MgAl) phase, referred to earlier in this proposal, presumably incorporates five crystallographically different Friauf polyhedra.
The intermetallic compounds Fe3Zn10 , Ni3Zn10, and Mn3Zn10 commonly referred to as the T-phases, are reported in the literature to as the Γ-phases, are reported in literature to be cubic with a cell edge of approximately a0 = 8.8 A and space group. The structure proposed by Osawa and Ogawa, Z. Krist., 68, 177 (1928), has been generally accepted and is described in handbooks such as Pearson, Handbook of Lattice Spacings and Structures of Metals, Pergamon Press (1958); it has been assigned the type number D81. This structure is not in accord with the fundamental structural principles that we would expect to apply in these three compounds. A re-examination was therefore initiated. We have so far explored single crystals of Ni3Zn10 only. A complete three-dimensional set of diffraction data has disproved the assigned type number D81. The actual atomic arrangement in the crystal of Ni3Zn10 is based on icosahedral configurations, as we expected, and not, as was claimed, on "body-centered" cubes. It seems to us that structures of type number D82 do not exist. We shall soon re-examine crystals of Fe3Zn10 and Mn3Zn10.
Investigations of a series of intermetallic compounds referred to in the literature as γ-brass-type compounds with doubled and tripled unit-cell edges, i.e., with cube edges of the order of 18 A and 27 A respectively have recently been started, with the object of studying the mechanism of this doubling or tripling. So far two such phases have been attacked, the NiCd4 phase and the Cu4Sn phase. The studies are based on complete three-dimensional sets of intensity data obtained with the use of single crystals.
We have noted that Cu4Sn has a cube edge of 18 A and not of 27 A as is sometimes stated in the literature.
We have found that Ni-Cd alloys on slow cooling form crystals of one and the same habit regardless of composition over a range between about 12 atomic per cent nickel and 55 atomic per cent nickel. The x-ray diffraction patterns of these crystals are very similar to one another, except that some patterns indicate primitive cubic cells of edge a0 ~ 9 A and others face-centered cubic cells of edge a0 = 19 A. A fairly detailed study has been made of a crystal of approximate composition NiCd4, which is face-centered cubic with cell edge a0 = 19.5 A. This crystal exhibits disorder between slightly different atomic arrangements. It seems likely that this phase has a very wide range of homogeneity, and that the degree of disorder varies with composition. In order to obtain a detailed picture about the nature of this phase it will be necessary to obtain a complete three-dimensional set of intensity data from each of a number of single crystals of different compositions and then to compute three-dimensional Fourier maps. Such a procedure may very likely be necessary to clarify the nature of several presumably related phases in a number of other alloy systems. Of particular interest are the systems cadmium-palladium and cadmium-platinum, in each of which there seem to be three phases that differ only very slightly in structure.
It is very easy to obtain single crystals of the various nickel-cadmium phases. The use of our present conventional photographic methods for the collection of the x-ray data would require a formidable investment of labor. With an automatized x-ray diffractometer and a powerful x-ray source the investigation could be carried out with moderate effort. At present we shall conduct detailed studies on only one crystal of each phase and shall carry out supplementary studies of preliminary nature with powder methods, using crystal-monochromatized radiation.
The intermetallic compounds Mg6Pd and Mg6Pt seem to have structures very similar to those of the aforementioned compounds. The crystals are cubic, the edge of the unit cell being a0 = 20 A. These compounds will be investigated later.
We know of many more alloy phases that are likely to provide valuable information about the nature of bonding in metals, but it is very likely that the work outlined above will lead us to even more important structure problems that we might prefer to pursue. We anticipate that the prosecution of the research so far described will require several years.
Theoretical studies on the nature of intermetallic compounds and other alloy phases will be carried out in parallel with the experimental investigations.
A summary of our present and future research is given below:
- Accurate refinement of the atomic positional parameters of NaCd2.
- Detailed crystal structure investigations of Cu4Cd3, Mg2Al3, γ(MgAl), jS'(MgAl), Fe3Zn10 , Ni3Zn10, Mn3Zn10 (“T” phases), Cu4Sn, all existing phases in the system Ni-Cd, several phases in the systems Pd-Cd and Pt-Cd, and Mg6Pd and Mg6Pt.
- Phase-diagram studies of (a) the system Mg-Al-X (X = transition element), with special attention to be given to Mg-Al-V. (b) the entire system Ni-Cd.
- Theoretical studies on the nature of intermetallic compounds and other alloy phases.
General Objectives of the Program
The reason for our particular interest in crystal structures of extreme complexity is that in general the diversity of environment enables the atoms to assume positions relative to one another characteristic of their sizes and bond-forming powers, whereas a simple structure involves adjustment of one atom to another in such a way that only an average value of atomic properties finds expression. In the complex structures, dependent on many parameters, there are many independent interatomic contacts, and many different values of interatomic distances can be determined.
At the present time the resonating-valence-bond theory of metals and alloys, developed in association with the experimental work in the California Institute of Technology, provides a moderately satisfactory explanation for many of the observed features of the complex structures determined for intermetallic compounds. The theory of these compounds is, however, far from complete, and it is probable that further experimental and theoretical work can lead to great progress in the understanding of the nature of intermetallic compounds and other alloys (crystalline solutions) and in the correlation of the physical properties of alloys with their composition and structure.
In many instances, interpretation or even detection of important structural details is, unfortunately, inhibited due to lack of accuracy of the experimental work and lack of completeness of the refinement of the structural parameters. The scope of our present plans requires that the experimental work as well as refinement calculations be carried on to a high degree of accuracy.
Experiments and Instrumentation
For the collection of intensity data for x-ray reflections from single crystals we have been using conventional photographic methods, especially the Weissenberg technique. The intensities are estimated from photographs by visual comparison with a calibrated scale. This is the most time-consuming and cumbersome phase of many of our present experiments, especially when crystals of very complex intermetallic compounds are to be studied. Such crystals produce between one thousand and two thousand symmetrically independent reflections. These have to be measured in sets; and in order to obtain correlation factors between the sets, many reflections have to be measured repeatedly on different photographs. The quality of these data determine the meaningful degree of accuracy to which refinement can be carried out. The considerable investment of labor required to obtain by the visual method complete sets of data of adequate accuracy is at present the obstacle most urgently to be alleviated.
A second difficulty sometimes arises from the fact that certain intermetallic compounds form only crystals of extremely small size. The intensity data for Cu4Cd3 and Ni3Zn10, for instance, had to be obtained with the use of crystals about 10 microns in diameter; exposure times of about 250 hours were required for each photograph and the x-ray camera had to be modified to allow a reasonable signal-to-noise ratio.
An automatized x-ray diffractometer operated with a powerful x-ray source (rotating-tar get tube) and reliable counter equipment would considerably facilitate our research on complex intermetallic compounds. Such an instrument would also stimulate more detailed investigations of alloy phases of varying composition, for which complete sets of intensity data will have to be obtained from several single crystals as was mentioned earlier in this report.
A General Electric x-ray diffractometer and single-crystal orienter has been made available to us through a grant from ARPA; a locally assembled stabilized constant-potential power supply and counter equipment are on hand. It is our plan to accumulate experience with this instrument through manual operation and then to develop an instrument that is rigid and accurate enough to be automatized and that can be used with a rotating-target tube. A separate equipment proposal is being prepared for submission to NSF.
In parallel with our single-crystal studies, supplementary metallographic investigations will be carried out to establish composition ranges of alloy phases and also to explore and re-examine a number of phase diagrams. A fairly complete metallographic laboratory has been set up during the last two years, including levitation-melt furnace, electric-arc button furnace, polishing equipment, and a Zeiss Ultraphot II Pol microscope. A few pieces of equipment such as cut-off machine, ultrasonic cleaner, and re-circulator are still lacking.
Requested Financial Support
Our research on the structure of intermetallic compounds and other alloy phases has been carried on through contracts from the Office of Naval Research. At present this work is supported under Contract Nonr-220(33) at a rate not to exceed 20, 000 dollars per year. The support will very likely continue through August 31, 1964, but presumably with reduced funds. It is very likely that the present contract will be discontinued after August 31, 1964. The Office of Naval Research has recommended us to seek support from the NSF.
Our research on complex intermetallic compounds has been ever more intensified during the last years and has now reached a level that can be maintained only with additional financial support. This is due to the fact that our investigations have led us to ever-more important and complex structure problems that we liked to pursue, but also to gradual solution of the problem of obtaining qualified technical assistants.
Mrs. B. Christiansson and Mr. K. Christiansson joined our research group in December last year. Mrs. Christiansson has many years' experience in metallurgy and x-ray diffraction, and Mr. Christiansson has unusual qualifications of temperament and broad technical experience. He is an excellent experimentalist. Mr. K. Lautsch has been trained here. So far, he has carried out most of the x-ray photography and the collection of data.
Our ONR funds to pay these practically irreplaceable assistants will be expended by June 31, 1963.
Graduate and undergraduate students show increasing interest and desire to participate in the research as the results become known and the program develops. At present, these students have to be paid from other than ONR funds.
The salaries given in the attached budget are the ones at present paid plus an anticipated increase. Only one graduate student is at present participating in this program.
The amounts estimated for computer charges and expendable items also correspond to our present expenditures. During the current fiscal year a considerable fraction of our computer charges has been covered by other than ONR funds. Such funds will not be available to us during the coming year.
We respectfully request support of $367,035 for a period of five years; that is, $73,407 per year according to the attached budget. The desired starting date is July 1, 1963, since we anticipate that our present funds will be depleted by June 31, 1963.
