Research Abstract

The microscopic mechanisms of atomic diffusion and their pressure dependence in various covalent liquids, such as typically liquid silica, have been clarified by theoretical calculations based on first-principles molecular-dynamics simulations and experimental techniques of neutron and x-ray inelastic scattering. We investigated the time evolution of local atomic structure and bonding properties between atoms at each pressure, and discussed atomic dynamics in covalent liquids under pressure from a point of view of dynamic asymmetry. The knowledge obtained in this study is important in understanding dynamic properties of materials, such as silica and water, which are getting attention in many fields including geophysics and biology.
