Spinodal Decomposition

Some discussion of spinodal decomposition can be found in Lecture 4 of Course MP6.

The following computer simulations of phase separation in an Fe-40Cr at.% alloy at 850 K is due to M. Honjo and Y. Saito of Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan. Details can be found in ISIJ International 40 (2000) 916--821.
