Abstract
We present a density-functional approach for crystal-melt interface tension of simple metals. The theory is applied to simple bcc metal Na, and simple fcc metals A1 and Pb. Comparing with available experimental surface tensions of these elements, the calculated results are in fairly good agreement with the measurements by conjecturing that the 10–90 width of the interfacial transition zone is about ten atomic layers, which is motivated from computer simulation. © 1989, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
