Abstract The thermodynamics, structural and transport properties (density, melting point, heat capacity, thermal expansion coefficient, viscosity and electrical conductivity) of a ferro-aluminosilicate slag have been studied in the solid and liquid state (1273–2273 K) using molecular dynamics. The simulations were based on a Buckingham-type potential, which was extended here, to account for the presence of Cr and Cu. The potential was optimized by fitting pair distribution function partials to values determined by Reverse Monte Carlo modelling of X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments. The resulting short range order features and ring statistics were in tight agreement with experimental data and created consensus for the accurate prediction of transport properties. Accordingly, calculations yielded rational values both for the average heat capacity, equal to 1668.58 J/(kg·K), and for the viscosity, in the range of 4.09–87.64 cP. The potential was consistent in predicting accurate values for mass density (i.e. 2961.50 kg/m3 vs. an experimental value of 2940 kg/m3) and for electrical conductivity (5.3–233 S/m within a temperature range of 1273.15–2273.15 K).

By using a transfer matrix model, we examined in this paper the extended states of a noninteracting electron in one-dimensional dimer/trimer randomly placed in superlattices (SLs). We study numerically the effects of short-range correlated disorder on the electronic transport properties and intentionally disordered GaAs/Al x Ga 1-x As SLs. We consider layers having identical thickness where the Al concentration x takes at random two different values with the constraint that one of them appears only in pairs or triply i.e., the random dimer/trimer barrier.
