Abstract

Recent observations of spontaneous long-range ordering in alloys of isovalent semiconductors, despite independent evidence for repulsive interactions in these systems, are interpreted in terms of first-principles total-energy calculations for ordered compounds and cluster-variation-method calculations for the disordered phase.
