[SIT21-04] Properties of liquid Fe mixtures under high-pressure conditions

Keywords:high pressure, ab initio molecular dynamics, liquid

The effects of light elements such as H, C, O, Si, and S on the local structures of liquid Fe under high pressure are investigated by ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The simulations clarify that H, C, and O are incorporated into liquid Fe interstitially while Si and S are “substitutional” type impurities. In addition, the interaction between light elements depends on the type of element. The C-C interactions are stronger than those of other light elements. The S-S interactions depend on the S concentration. From our simulations of liquid sulfur, it is found that the liquid sulfur has a covalent-like interactions even in metallic state, and liquid sulfur has a simple liquid structure at 320 GPa and higher pressures.
