Bending strain-driven modification of surface reconstructions: Au(111)
U. Tartaglino, E. Tosatti, D. Passerone +1
Strain can affect the morphology of a crystal surface, and cause modifications of its reconstruction even when weak, as in the case of mechanical bending. We carried out calculatio…

Action-derived molecular dynamics in the study of rare events
D. Passerone, M. Parrinello
We present a practical method to generate classical trajectories with fixed initial and final boundary conditions. Our method is based on the minimization of a suitably defined dis…

Two-Stage Rotational Disordering of a Molecular Crystal Surface: C60
C. Laforge, D. Passerone, A. B. Harris +2
We propose a two-stage mechanism for the rotational surface disordering phase transition of a molecular crystal, as realized in C fullerite. Our study, based on Monte Carlo…
