要旨

The structure of molten zinc chloride was investigated at pressures up to 3000 bar and temperatures up to 500 °C with a new high pressure cell. The distinct terms and the total atom pair correlation functions were determined with high energy photons. The distinct terms show systematic change in the low κ-range between 0 and 3 Å−1 as a function of the applied pressure. A reduction of the first sharp diffraction peak (prepeak) intensity of the distinct part is observed with increasing pressure. It is concluded, that this behaviour indicates a network breaking tendency of the corner shared [ZnCl4]2− tetrahedra with increasing pressure, while the tetrahedra themselves remain unchanged over the whole applied pressure and temperature range.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
