Abstract

Abstract

Liquids are an intriguing state of condensed matter with a density close to that of the solid-state but with all atoms undergoing continuous diffusive motions, resulting in an absence of long-range structural order. Understanding the structural evolution of liquids under extreme conditions is important for fundamental physics, chemistry, materials and planetary science. Two or more liquid states may exist even for single-component substances, which is known as liquid polymorphism, and the transition between them is called liquid-liquid transition. In situ experiments and atomic simulations can provide crucial insight into the nature of liquid-liquid phase transitions, paving the way toward understanding the complex phase diagrams and melting behavior under high pressure. In this paper, we reviewed the research progress on the structure of metallic molten Sn and Bi, and discussed how to gain a more physically understanding of the existence of two or more liquids in a single-component substance but also provided information for in-depth understanding of liquid properties and complex phase diagrams.
- melton tin,
- bismuth,
- liquid-liquid phase transition,
