The Concentration of Molecules on Internal Surfaces in Ice

The Concentration of Molecules on Internal Surfaces in Ice

Abstract

In this paper the experimental expression for the ``local conductivity'' of ice is given. This expression has two terms, one of which has already been discussed and brought into close relation with the structure of ice, that is, with its heat of sublimation and its lattice constant. This paper brings out another relation, deriving it from the second term of the experimental expression. It is concluded from an analysis outlined here that the second term of the local conductivity gives the concentration of molecules in ``internal surfaces.'' For the specimen of ice to which this method was applied the concentration of molecules on internal surfaces comes out as 1.03×1017 molecules/cc. This is proposed as a new method of studying imperfections (internal surfaces) in dielectric crystals, and one which seems to be well suited to this purpose. It gains its advantages from the fact that it is not dependent upon the regularity of the imperfections, as in x-ray diffraction methods, or upon the connectivity of the system of internal surfaces, as in direct current conduction.
