long-range order parameter

long-range order parameter

In the case of binary alloys, a degree of order of atom species A and B increases with decreasing temperature after a substance undergoes a transition from a disordered phase to an ordered phase. The "long-range order parameter" means this degree of order. It can be measured from the intensity change of a specific reflection that appears in an ordered phase.
