Effective Interionic Potentials and Properties of Molten Noble and Transition Metals
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent X-ray diffraction data on molten noble and transition metals have been used to calculate effective interionic potentials by means of the Born-Green equation. The results on the noble metals are compared with the generalized pseudopotential calculations of Moriarty. In all cases the potentions were found to be insensitive to temperature and to have long-range oscillations. The results suggest that the effective valence number is close to unity in these molten metals, this giving reasonable values of the electrical resistivity when calculated in the framework of the usual Ziman theory. The self-diffusion coefficients, viscosities and surface tensions were calculated from the potentials and radial distribution functions using the kinetic theory of fluids. Adequate agreement with experimental data was obtained.

Theoretical study on RbCl crystal with Möbius inverse potentials
The alkali halides have been studied very frequently for their simple structures and interesting properties, for example, the high-pressure induced transition1. There are several successful models that can be employed. The most famous model of them is the Tosi-Fumi interionic potential2 which is an empirical potential derived from the experimental data. Whereas, here we developed a new potentia...
متن کاملContinuous pressure-induced structural transition in the noble-metal halide melts.
The reduction of the charge of the species in molten salts, including the complete removal of the Coulomb interaction, appears to have the same eFect as an increase in the pressure on these systems. This observation leads to the prediction that a continuous pressure-induced structural change is to be found in the noble-metal halide melts at much lower pressures than those used to induce a simil...

The structure of molten LaBr3 was investigated by X-ray diffraction and molecular dynamics simulations. It was found that the short range structure of molten LaBr3 is very similar to that of molten LaCl3, except for some structural features such as interionic distances based on the difference of anion sizes. In the MD simulation, the shear viscosity of molten LaBr3 was estimated from the struct...
