Real space study of local bonding for zinc structure based on temperature-dependent x-ray pair distribution function analysis

Zinc metal has a hexagonal close packing hcp structure with an unusual axial ratio c/a. This work presents the local atomic structure analysis of elemental zinc using the x-ray atomic pair distribution function (PDF) method and total synchrotron x-ray scattering in the temperature range of 100–300 K...
