“…As is noted above, the record high ST value of indium in the liquid state, obtained in [54,71,92], not only exceeds by 20% the commonly accepted and rec ommended values but, moreover, proved to be higher than the surface energy (SE) of indium in the solid state (σ sld [86,89]. In the authors' opinion, this con tradicts not only the absolute majority of available experimental data but also the theory.…”

“…For example, the SE of indium in the solid phase is equal to 633 ± 4 mJ/m 2 , whereas the ST of indium in the liquid state is 701 mJ/m 2 , based on the data of [54,71]. In this case, one should stress that the SE of indium was determined by the most reliable cur rently available measurement method of the surface energy of metals in the solid state (compensation zero creep method), ensuring the SE determination error, which does not exceed 2% at a 95% reliability [86,89,140,146], i.e., by not much more than the measure [54,71] are not only smaller but on the contrary substantially exceed the SE of indium in the solid state. The same is related to gallium and thallium.…”

The primary results of investigations of the surface tension (ST) of indium for the last six decades are considered in this review, and original data on the temperature dependence of the ST of indium obtained by authors using the sessile large drop and maximal drop pressure methods are given. Primary attention is paid to analyzing the possible methodological drawbacks of experimental studies, in which surface tension values of pure indium and some other metals, significantly exceeding the ST data, determined by traditional classic meth ods, are obtained. In the authors' opinion, the cleaning of the studied metal surfaces by heavy ion bombard ments of inert gases, which is used in similar works, cannot guarantee obtaining true surface tension values.

“…Fig ure 2 shows that the value differs from the calcu lated (straight line 3) and experimental (straight line 4) values of specific surface energy determined for a planar interface by nearly two times. We calculated the experimental macroscopic values of the specific sur face energy by Gibbs-Helmholtz relation (21) from experimental data on and [37]. Let us consider the possible reasons for the large difference between the calculated values of parameter and specific surface energy According to [26], the TBP yields quite adequate values of cohesive energy for bulk metal phases.…”

The many particle tight binding potential has been employed to calculate the specific surface energy of icosahedral nanoclusters of transition metals. The equimolecular surface has been considered as the dividing surface. The surface energy has been shown to linearly increase with particle size at nanocluster radii smaller than five radii of the first coordination sphere. As the nanocluster radius is further enlarged, the sur face energy passes through a maximum and approaches an asymptotic macroscopic value. The coefficients of proportionality between the specific surface energy and nanocluster radius have been found and compared with the data available from the literature.

“…The quantity ΔP melt quadratically depends on V, as in [15,16], and increases with an increase in the difference Δρ In . The density of indium upon melting and further heating of the melt (Δρ In in formula (2)) decreases [17], i.e., upon local melting under irradiation, a fast (for a time comparable with τ imp ) increase in volume takes place. In this case, ρ In, T = 157°C = 7000 kg/m 3 , ρ In, T = 400°C = 6800 kg/m 3 .…”
