| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ni-Zr-Nb amorphous alloys with small content of hydrogen,are exposed to anomalous electrial transport phenomena such as the Coulomb-blockade oscillation in which an electrical charge (proton) tunnels between quantum dots.
In the present work, with the first principles calculation, we proposed a local structural model for the Ni-Zr-Nb amorphous alloy by optimizing the atomic structures of the Ni48Zr40Nb24 cell which consist of icosahedral Ni5Zr5Nb3 clusters and vacancy area. We also identified energetically favorable H-atom sites in the local structure, and find that a H atom is favorably located not at tetrahedral sites in the icosahedral cluster but at octahedral sites in the region of inter-cluster. Furthermore, we explored the minimum energy pass for a H atom in the Ni-Zr-Nb amorphous alloy from an energetically favorable site to another site through the local structures , in which a H-atom feels potential barriers corresponding to a kind of quantum do.
