  1. Complex Intermetallic PhasesGordon J. Miller, Iowa State University, DMR 0605949 Re-Examine the Concept of “Zintl Phases” to enhance our understanding of chemical bonding and structure-property relationships Al-Al Covalent Bonding Compromise between metallic and Tl-Tl covalency… Theoretical calculations predict high pressure phase transition in KTl from cluster-based to diamond structure… Increasing size of alkali metal (Li, Na, K) creates Tl clusters vs. networks.
