Uncorrelated Displacements: Types of displacement: (1) atomic size differences in an alloy static displacement, (2) thermal vibrations dynamic displacement Consider a simple type of displacement disorder: each atom has a small, random shift, , off its site of a periodic lattice
Consider the overlap of the atom center distribution with itself after a shift of nax

No correlation in probability of overlap of two atom centers is the same for all shift except n = 0na
When n = 0, perfect overlap at = 0, at 0: no overlap
