First-principles study for the adsorption of segments of BPA-PC on alpha-Al2O3(0001)

Janne Blomqvist, Petri Salo

We have studied the adsorption of bisphenol-A-polycarbonate (BPA-PC) on the alpha-Al2O3(0001) surface using density-functional theory (DFT) with van der Waals (vdW) corrections. Th…

Adsorption of benzene, phenol, propane and carbonic acid molecules on oxidized Al(111) and alpha-Al2O3(0001) surfaces: A first-principles study

Janne Blomqvist, Petri Salo

We present the results of ab initio calculations describing the adsorption of certain small organic molecules on clean and oxidized Al(111) surfaces as well as on the alpha-Al2O3(0…

Electronic properties of H on vicinal Pt surfaces: A first-principles study

T. Vehviläinen, P. Salo, T. Ala-Nissila +1

In this work, we use the first-principle density-functional approach to study the electronic structure of a H atom adsorbed on the ideal Pt(111) and vicinal Pt(211) and Pt(331) sur…

Investigation of the stability of Hopfions in the two-component Ginzburg-Landau model

Juha Jäykkä, Jarmo Hietarinta, Petri Salo

We study the stability of Hopfions embedded in the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) model of two oppositely charged components. It has been shown by Babaev et al. [Phys. Rev. B 65, 100512 (200…

Relaxation of twisted vortices in the Faddeev-Skyrme model

Jarmo Hietarinta, Juha Jäykkä, Petri Salo

We study vortex knotting in the Faddeev-Skyrme model. Starting with a straight vortex line twisted around its axis we follow its evolution under dissipative energy minimization dyn…

Energetics and atomic mechanisms of dislocation nucleation in strained epitaxial layers

O. Trushin, E. Granato, S. C. Ying +2

We study numerically the energetics and atomic mechanisms of misfit dislocation nucleation and stress relaxation in a two-dimensional atomistic model of strained epitaxial layers o…
