Understanding the Density Maximum of Water with Machine Learned Potentials

Yizhi Song, Renxi Liu, Chunyi Zhang +5

After melting, at ambient pressure, the density of water continues to increase with temperature until it reaches a maximum around 4 °C. For nearly a century, this phenomenon has be…

Unveiling hole-facilitated amorphisation in pressure-induced phase transformation of silicon

Tong Zhao, Shulin Zhong, Yuxin Sun +9

Pressure-induced phase transformation occurs during silicon (Si) wafering processes. \b{eta}-tin (Si-II) phase is formed at high pressures, followed by the transformation to Si-XII…
