Extensive numerical simulations provide evidence that the thermodynamic behaviour of supercooled silicon is similar to that proposed for supercooled water: a line of liquid-liquid transitions that ends at a critical point. In the case of silicon, however, the critical point occurs at negative pressures.

Abstract
Extensive numerical simulations provide evidence that the thermodynamic behaviour of supercooled silicon is similar to that proposed for supercooled water: a line of liquid-liquid transitions that ends at a critical point. In the case of silicon, however, the critical point occurs at negative pressures.File in questo prodotto:
