Abstract Novel ordered intermetallic compounds have stimulated much interest. Ru-Al alloys are a prominent class of high-temperature structural materials, but the experimentally reported crystal structure of the intermetallic Ru$_{2}$Al$_{5}$ phase remains elusive and debatable. To resolve this controversy, we extensively explored the crystal structures of Ru$_{2}$Al$_{5}$ using first-principles calculations combined with crystal structure prediction technique. Among the calculated x-ray diffraction patterns and lattice parameters of five candidate Ru$_{2}$Al$_{5}$ structures, those of the orthorhombic $Pmmn$ structure best aligned with recent experimental results. The structural stabilities of the five Ru$_{2}$Al$_{5}$ structures were confirmed through formation energy, elastic constants, and phonon spectrum calculations. We also comprehensively analyzed the mechanical and electronic properties of the five candidates. This work can guide the exploration of novel ordered intermetallic compounds in Ru-Al alloys.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
