The structure factor in liquid Sn

D. Jović, I. Pǎdureanu

Open full text 15 citations

Abstract

The structure factor in liquid Sn has been measured, using the neutron diffraction technique, in the temperature range from the melting point up to 870 degrees C. A wide region of momentum transfer 0.5 AA-1 -1, has also been covered. Diffraction patterns show the presence of a double structure up to 500 degrees C. Comparison is made with the theoretical structure factor obtained from the hard-sphere interaction potential. From the experimental structure factor, the atomic radial distribution functions are derived.
