Structure and electrical resistivity of liquid In–Sn alloy

Structure and Electrical Resistivities of Liquid Al and Ga Metals and Their Binary Alloys

“…α i , β i , and A i denote the parameters of the potential tabulated by the authors [12] and β i and A i are expressed in terms of α i as It is noteworthy that this model provides an accurate description of the interactions in the liquid metal alloys as we have already observed [13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. The values of pseudopotential form factor parameters used in this study given by Fiolhais et al [12] are listed in Table 1 with input densities and temperatures.…”

“…To describe interionic interactions, we have used the individual version of the local pseudopotential proposed by Fiolhais et al [11,12] which was developed for the solid state in requiring the main electronic features to be correctly predicted, and could be transferable to other environments as tested for liquid binary metal alloys [13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. The partial structure factors S i j (q) are determined from the solution of the OrnsteinZernike equation with the hybridized mean spherical approximation (HMSA) closure [20][21][22] which has been tested successfully for alkali as well as transition metals, and its reliability has been demonstrated in applications to a great variety of liquid oneor two-component realistic systems [18,[23][24][25][26][27][28]. To the best of our knowledge, no one previously has reported such a study to investigate the electrical resistivity using the structure factor from this transferable pseudopotential and this closure.…”
