BxC1−x (x = 0.1 and 0.25) oriented platelets were intercalated with alkali metal vapor (M = K, Rb, Cs), giving first-stage M(B0.1C0.9)8 and M(B0.25C0.75)10. The presence of M(BxC1−x)5 dense domains interstratified in the first-stage structure were brought out from the 00.ℓ simulations. The presence of these domains is attributed to the acceptor electron effect of boron, which slightly enhances the intercalation rate as compared to pure carbon. Intercalation of Cs in liquid ammonia is improved using 1600 °C heat-treated B0.25C0.75 as a host material, and the composition Cs(B0.25C0.75)12 is reached after intercalation. In intercalation compounds of Cs in liquid ammonia obtained from heat-treated B0.25C0.75, as the heat-treatment temperature (HTT) was increased from 1600 to 2000 °C, the segregation of first stage was observed in two structures Cs(BxC1−x)8 and Cs(BxC1−x)10 with the respective 2 × 2 0° and 2.23 × 2.23 two-dimensional lattices of the cesium atoms. The presence of these two structures is assigned to the heterogeneity of the host material induced by the formation of B4C boron carbide domains and the consecutive boron elimination of the BxC1−x lamellar phase with increasing HTT.

The Gibbs-Bogoliubov variational method has been considered to study the Helmholtz free energy of liquid alkali metals (Na, K, Rb and Cs) as a function of temperature, using Heine Abarenkov type model potential with Hubbard-Sham exchange and correlation function. The computed values are in very good agreement with experimental observations. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/bibechana.v9i0.7144 BIBECHANA 9 (2013) 7-12

Investigation of thermodynamic of liquid binary alloys using pseudopotential theory is reported. The potential suggested by Fiolhais et al. with its individual parameters is used for the entire calculation. A transferability of the potential from the solid to liquid medium is achieved for the presently reported binary alloy. The internal energy components, Helmholtz free energy, entropy, and total energy at various proportions of the participating alkali metals are included in the study. The comparison with the other data has been shown in the present article. Exchange and correlation effect is also tested with the help of various local field correction functions.
