Abstract
We present here initial results of our molecular dynamics (MD) study of an intercalated two dimensional (2D) Rb liquid modulated by its periodic graphite host/1–4/. The circular average of the in-plane liquid structure factor S(q) has been experimentally determined by X-ray scattering for stage 2 Rb/4/, K/5/ and Cs/6/ in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and there is considerable X-ray photographic data on the anisotropic liquid scattering from intercalated graphite single crystals/6–9/. There is also extensive information on the in-plane alkali dynamics from inelastic/10/ and quasielastic/11/ neutron scattering that may be directly compared to MD calculations of S(q,ω).
