R. Xu et W. Vanderlugt, RELATION BETWEEN NMR PROPERTIES AND ELECTRICAL-RESISTIVITY IN LI-GE, LI-SN AND LI-PB LIQUID ALLOYS, Zeitschrift fur Naturforschung. A, A journal of physical sciences, 49(11), 1994, pp. 1019-1022
Recent measurements of the electrical resistivity of liquid Li-Ge allo
ys enable us to check relations between NMR properties and resistivity
in non-metallic alloys derived by Warren in 1971. It is shown that th
e predicted linear relationships hold, but that the proportionality be
tween the square root of the conductivity and the Knight shift is viol
ated to some degree. A possible cause is the neglect of quadrupole int
eractions. Also, the relations only hold if the composition rather tha
n the temperature is taken as the implicit parameter.
