By applying ab initio molecular dynamics simulation to liquid Cu(6)Sn(5) alloy, the hetero-coordination tendency is discovered by Bathia-Thornton partial correlation functions and a chemical short-range parameter. However the local structural environment of Sn in l-Cu(6)Sn(5) alloy resembles that of liquid Sn by Voronoi analysis. A new feature, i.e. a subpeak in between the first and second peaks, is discovered by the present method which implies that topologically disordered β-Sn-type structural units may exist in l-Cu(6)Sn(5) alloy. The local density states of electrons show that both Cu-Sn and Sn-Sn bonding exist in l-Cu(6)Sn(5) alloy. This work suggests that chemical short-range order between unlike atoms and self-coordination between Sn atoms coexists in l-Cu(6)Sn(5) alloy.
