Abstract
The size effect on the lattice parameter of ionic KCl nanocrystals was studied systematically during mechanical milling of pure KCl powder under vacuum. The results suggest anomalous lattice expansion, with the lattice parameter increasing from 6.278Å at d=6μ m to 6.30307Å at d=85nm. The defects generated during ball milling of KCl and surface stress are deemed to be responsible for this lattice parameter expansion.
