The electric quadrupole hyperfine interactions for Hf-181/Ta-181 and In-111
/Cd-111 probes in the polycrystalline hafnium aluminides HfAl3 and Hf,AI, w
ere measured in the temperature range 30-1100 K. On the basis of the simila
rities of the numbers, sizes and asymmetries of electric field gradients, l
attice site allocations were made. In all matrices, Hf-181/Ta-181 was found
to substitute into the Hf site. The In-111/Cd-111 impurities were also ass
igned to the Hf lattice site in the low-temperature phase of HfAl3, which h
as DO23 structure, but appear to substitute into the two non-equivalent Al
sites in the Hf2Al3 phase, which has Fdd7 crystallographic structure. (C) 2
