METHODS OF SYNTHESIS OF INTERMETALLIDES AND FEATURES OF THE MECHANISM OF THEIR ORIGIN AND GROWTH

Abstract

It is shown for the first time that such processes as self-organization and self-assembly play an essential role in the formation of intermetallides, which help to organize into certain structures, minimize their energy and form stable metal compounds. The key role in the formation and stabilization of intermetallic compounds of the complementarity principle based on the atomic–molecular recognition of the "guest-host" components is also noted.
