Abstract
We present a calculation of the structure of molten Ge, based on pseudopotential-derived interatomic forces and the optimized random phase approximation. Good agreement with experiment is achieved. We show that the complex structure of liquid Ge results from the interplay of two characteristic distances: the effective hardcore diameter and the Friedel wavelength of the long range oscillations in the interatomic potential.
