High-frequency dynamics in liquid hydrogen fluoride reveal two subpicosecond relaxation processes. These findings suggest universal liquid-state dynamics across diverse liquid types, including water.

Area of Science:

  • Condensed matter physics
  • Chemical physics
  • Materials science

Background:

  • Understanding the collective dynamics of liquids is crucial for fundamental physics and chemistry.
  • Hydrogen-bonded liquids, like hydrogen fluoride, exhibit complex dynamic behaviors.
  • Previous studies have explored relaxation processes in various liquid systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the high-frequency collective dynamics of liquid hydrogen fluoride.
  • To identify and characterize relaxation processes in this liquid.
  • To compare the findings with simulations and other liquid systems.

Main Methods:

  • Inelastic X-ray Scattering (IXS) was employed to probe the dynamics.
  • Experiments were conducted on the coexistence curve at a specific temperature (239 K).

  • Results were compared with existing molecular dynamics simulations.
  • Main Results:

    • Two distinct relaxation processes were identified in liquid hydrogen fluoride.
    • These processes occur on characteristic time scales within the subpicosecond range.
    • The dynamic behavior closely resembles that observed in liquid water.

    Conclusions:

    • Hydrogen-bonded liquids share similar dynamic characteristics with simple and glass-forming liquids.
    • The identified subpicosecond relaxation processes appear to be universal features of the liquid state.
    • This universality suggests common underlying mechanisms governing liquid dynamics across different substances.
