W. Sekkal et al., MOLECULAR-DYNAMICS SIMULATION OF HIGH-PRESSURE PHASES OF CUCL AND CUBR, Journal of physics and chemistry of solids, 59(8), 1998, pp. 1293-1301
The structural properties of copper halides in their zinc-blende, NaCl
and intermediate structures have been calculated using a three-body e
mpirical Tersoff potential coupled with a molecular dynamics simulatio
n. This study predicts the presence of:cation disorder at elevated tem
perature within the high pressure rocksalt structured phase of CuCl. (
