AbstractIt is well known that the liquid dynamics slows down on approaching the liquid-gas critical point or the liquid-glass transition. Recently we have found by the sound attenuation measurements that the metal-nonmetal (M-NM) transition also induces slow dynamics. In the M-NM transition range of expanded liquid Hg, we have observed anomalous increase in the sound attenuation due to the structural relaxation process. Assuming a simple Debye-type relaxation, we have estimated that the relaxation time should be of the order of nanoseconds and revealed that the relaxation strength has a broad maximum in the M-NM transition range. Moreover, two types of anomalies have been observed also in the semiconductor-metal (S-M) transition range of liquid Te-Se mixtures. We present the recent experimental results of the sound attenuation measurements and discuss briefly the mechanisms of the slow dynamics in the metal-nonmetal transition range of liquids.
