Ni-P (Nickel-Phosphorus)
K.J. Lee and P. Nash
The Ni-P system is very complex and is not well established. The assessed Ni-P
phase diagram is based on [08Kon], [58Koe], [65Lar], and [86Yup]. Above 40 at.%
P, the diagram is not isobaric, because the vapor pressure of P over the
alloys varies for different compositions and temperatures. From 0 to 75 at.% P,
there are 11 intermediate phases. Among them, Ni12P5 (Ni7P3), Ni5P2 (Ni~2.5P,
Ni~2.55P) and Ni5P4 (NiP~0.83, NiP0.8, Ni6P5) were designated differently by
different investigators.
[58Koe] found that the maximum solid solubility of P in (Ni) is 0.32 at.% P at
the eutectic temperature (870 C).
Metastable "Ni5P2" was observed by [78Vaf]; three additional metastable phases
were observed by [80Vaf] at 25 at.% P. A remarkable metastable homogeneity
range of "Ni5P2" was found, compared to that of stoichiometric equilibrium
Ni5P2, [83Pit, 85Pit, 86Pit]. [85Kuo] and [87Zha] found a (metastable fcc
phase), a1, a2, and a3 (metastable hexagonal phases) on heating
electrodeposited and chemical-bath deposited amorphous Ni-P alloys. They
argued that the three metastable phases found by [80Vaf] can be indexed to
equilibrium Ni12P5.
Amorphous or metastable Ni-P alloys can be obtained by electrodeposition,
chemical deposition in acid bath or alkaline bath, vapor deposition, melt
spinning, sputtering, and ion implantation up to 42 at.% P. [47Bre] and [50Bre]
first observed amorphous Ni-P alloys prepared by electrodeposition and
chemical bath deposition. Since then, many metastable and amorphous phases
have been reported. However, contradictions have been found in terms of
structure (interstitial or substitutional solid solution, microcrystalline or
amorphous), crystallization and relaxation behavior, electronic structure (
rigid band or covalent model), and magnetic and electronic properties. It is
considered that the extrinsic (preparation method, surface, and impurity
effects) and intrinsic (magnetic and short-range order or medium-range order)
inhomogeneities cause the controversial results.
In early work on as-deposited Ni-P alloys, researchers were unable to
determine whether the material was microcrystalline saturated solid solution
or amorphous. Microcrystalline alloys with less than 3-nm grain size and
amorphous alloys show a similar broadening effect in transmission electron
microscopy (TEM) and by X-ray diffraction. However, crystallization of
microcrystalline structures occurs by crystallite coarsening, whereas that of
amorphous phases is the result of nucleation and grain growth [70Bag]. It is
believed that the structure of as-deposited Ni-P materials is dependent on P
content. Below about 12 at.% P, electrodeposited, chemical-bath deposited, or
vapor-deposited Ni-P alloys are metastable solid solutions, and above 12 at.%
P, they are amorphous. However, [87Din] argued that as-deposited Ni-P (16.7 at.
% P) alloys are a mixture of amorphous and weakly bonded crystalline material.
Using 100-kV TEM beam radiation, the crystalline phase can be converted to
amorphous. For the supersaturated crystalline alloys, the material is more
strained, and grain size decreases with increasing P content [70Mae, 74Tya,
78Vaf].
Ni is a ferromagnetic element with TC = 358 C, and sc is 58.5 emu/g. Ni3P (c =
0.4 x 10-6 emu/g) [80Ama] and Ni2P (c = 0.3 x 10-5 emu/g) [81Iwa] are
temperature-independent, Pauli-paramagnetic compounds. More detailed study
showed that crystalline Ni3P consists of a Pauli-paramagnetic matrix with
ferromagnetic precipitates and Curie-Weiss type impurities.
The amorphous Ni-P alloys have interesting magnetic properties. Below Xcr (
critical composition = 17 at.% P [74Pan], 18 at.% P [78Ber], 15 at.% P [86Son])
, amorphous Ni-P alloys are weak homogeneous ferromagnets, TC decreases
rapidly with increasing P content, and sc decreases rapidly with increasing P
content and temperature. Above Xcr, amorphous Ni-P alloys are weakly
paramagnetic with magnetic inhomogeneity and c decreases rapidly with
increasing P content.
Magnetic inhomogeneity was studied based on the Arrott plot [s2 - (H/s)],
which showed a deviation from linearity at low applied fields (H). It was
suggested that there exist ferromagnetic precipitates, superparamagnetic
clusters, or giant-moment paramagnetic clusters [85Bak, 86Son, 74Pan, 78Ber].
NiP2 was synthesized by [68Don] in a high-pressure anvil press at 65 kbar (64
x 103 atm) at 1100 to 1400 C and quenched. Electrical resistivity and
magnetic susceptibility measurements suggested that it is metallic. Its
density, 4.76 g/cm3, is greater than the 4.58 g/cm3 of the equilibrium
monoclinic NiP2 phase.
