Abstract
The anomalous structure and related properties of liquid KPb alloy are presented through an ab initio evaluated ordering potential as a function of concentration It appears that considerable ordering occurs and it maximizes at the stoichiometric composition ck∼05 We then use the model to obtain the BhatiaThorntonBT structure factors at different compositions ck=010305 and 08 The calculations of concentration fluctuation and other related thermodynamic properties show that this ordering potential approach works reasonably for this compound forming liquid alloy
