Abstract

We have calculated the pair distribution functions and partial structure factors of molten AgI within the hypernetted chain (HNC) approximation. We have assumed that the effective interionic pair potentials are the same in the liquid and solid states, and have used the potentials constructed by Parrinello et al., which they used to describe both α-AgI and the α⇆β phase transition in AgI. The structure of molten AgI exhibits features similar to those of molten CuCl. Both of these salts melts from a superionic phase.
