Rk. Pandey, TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENCE OF VOLUME THERMAL-EXPANSION AND INTERATOMIC SEPARATION FOR NACL CRYSTAL, Journal of physics and chemistry of solids, 59(6-7), 1998, pp. 989-992
The temperature dependence of the volume thermal expansion and the int
eratomic separation are studied from a static lattice to melting tempe
rature for NaCl crystal. A new semi-phenomenological isobaric EOS is d
erived to investigate the interatomic separation as a function of temp
erature. The results are compared with the available experimental data
. A good agreement between theory and experiment demonstrates the vali
dity of the present work. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights re
