First-Principles Nanocapacitor Simulations of the Optical Dielectric Constant in Water Ice

Anthony Mannino, Graciele M. Arvelos, Kedarsh Kaushik +5

We introduce a combined density functional theory (DFT) and non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) framework to compute the capacitance of nanocapacitors and directly extract the…

Hexagonal ice density dependence on inter atomic distance changes due to nuclear quantum effects

Lucas T. S. de Miranda, Márcio S. Gomes-Filho, Mariana Rossi +2

Hexagonal ice (), the most common structure of ice, displays a variety of fascinating properties. Despite major efforts, a theoretical description of all its properties i…

Probing Water-Electrified Electrode interfaces: Insights from Au and Pd

Graciele M. Arvelos, Marivi Fernández-Serra, Alexandre R. Rocha +1

The water/electrode interface under an applied bias potential is a challenging out-of-equilibrium phenomenon, which is difficult to accurately model at the atomic scale. In this st…

Temperature and composition dependence of short-range order and entropy, and statistics of bond length: the semiconductor alloy (GaN)(ZnO)

Jian Liu, Luana S. Pedroza, Carissa Misch +2

We present total energy and force calculations on the (GaN)(ZnO) alloy. Site-occupancy configurations are generated by Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, based on a cluste…

Systematic investigation of a family of gradient-dependent functionals for solids

Philipp Haas, Fabien Tran, Peter Blaha +4

Eleven density functionals are compared with regard to their performance for the lattice constants of solids. We consider standard functionals, such as the local-density approximat…
