Collective ionic dynamics in the liquid Na-Cs alloy: An ab initio molecular dynamics study

Producción CientíficaWe present results for several structural and dynamical properties of the liquid Na-Cs alloy. The study has been carried out by means of the orbital-free ab initio molecular dynamics method, combined with local ionic pseudopotentials constructed within the same framework. The results show good agreement with the available experimental data, reproducing the homocoordinating tendency exhibited by this alloy
