Numerical simulation of electrical conductivity in microscopically inhomogeneous materials

Webman, Itzhak, Jortner, Joshua, Cohen, Morrel H.·1975·Physical Review B

Abstract

The electrical transport properties of some microscopically inhomogeneous disordered materials were simulated by numerical calculations of the conductivity of cubic resistor networks with correlated bonds, both above and below the percolation threshold. The major effect of increasingly strong correlation among the metallic bonds is to shift the percolation threshold to lower values of the allowed metallic volume fraction, resulting in ${C}^{*}=0.15\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.02$ for the continuous-percolation limit. The numerical data were utilized for a quantitative fit of the electrical-conductivity data of metal-ammonia solutions and of alkali-tungsten bronzes, which undergo a continuous metal-nonmetal transition via the inhomogeneous transport regime.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
