Abstract

The neutron diffraction study of liquid Se–Te system has been carried out to reveal the origin of characteristic temperature dependence of various properties related to the structural order in atomic scale. The temperature dependence of measured structural functions of liquid Se x Te 1- x , system could be explained by a gradual transition from two-fold coordinated component (non-metallic) to the three-fold coordinated one (metallic). The partial structure factors of these two-fold and three-fold coordinations are separated with the help of the thermodynamic data. A configurational model satisfying these situations is also presented.
