Abstract

The metal-nonmetal transition in ionic liquids is reviewed with special emphasis on alkali metal-alkali halide solutions and the ionic alloy Cs-Au. Magnetic measurements, especially nuclear magnetic resonance, are discussed in relation to the nature of localized electronic states at low concentrations of excess metal and electron dynamics in the metal-nonmetal transition region. It is suggested that the stability of non-magnetic species governs the occurrence of a continuous metal-nonmetal transition or, alternatively, liquid-liquid phase separation.
