Contribution of dispersion interaction of s-spheres into the interfacial energy of α — Li and α — Na crystals bounding non-polar organic liquid boundary

Abstract

The contribution of the dispersion interaction into the interfacial energy of lithium and sodium BCC-crystals has been found on the boundaries with non-polar organic liquids on the grounds of the electron-statistical method as well as the E.M. Lifshits theory.
