The atomic structure of GeTe liquid alloy is studied by X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction in the temperature range from 750 to 850 ∘C. Its dynamic viscosity is measured from 1000 to 680 ∘C, which is 55 ∘C below the solidification point, using an oscillating-cup viscometer. The structural parameters of liquid GeTe show small changes and the dynamic viscosity behaves in accordance to the Arrhenius law. The experimental structural data are modeled with the reverse Monte-Carlo simulation technique. Ge atoms are found to be mainly coordinated by Te atoms and to a less extent by Ge atoms. The formation of a small number of Te-Te bonds is also probable. The results obtained are in agreement with ab-initio molecular dynamics simulations.
