Abstract

The temperature-dependent self-diffusion coefficient D(T) in liquid metals between the melting temperature Tm and boiling point Tb is modeled in terms of the relationship among D, liquid viscosity η, and liquid–vapor surface tension γlv. The model predictions for D(T) correspond to available experimental and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations results for liquid alkali metals Li, Na, Rb and Cs, semi-metal Al, transition and noble metals Ni, Cu, Ag and Au.
