Crystallization properties of a supercooled metallic liquid

Dongping Qi, Lu Jiang, S. Wang

Abstract

With the aid of molecular-dynamics technique, a calculation of the thermodynamic and structural properties of the crystallization of a supercooled metallic liquid is presented. The calculated results demonstrate a number of features of this crystallization. It now appears that the transition associated with this crystallization is a first-order-like phase transition in the Ehrenfest scheme.
