DL_POLY 5: Calculation of system properties on the fly for very large systems via massive parallelism

H. L. Devereux, C. Cockrell, A. M. Elena +8

Modelling has become a third distinct line of scientific enquiry, alongside experiments and theory. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations serve to interpret, predict and guide experi…

Reactive molecular dynamics at constant pressure via non-reactive force fields: extending the Empirical Valence Bond method to the isothermal-isobaric ensemble

Ivan Scivetti, Kakali Sen, Alin M. Elena +1

The Empirical Valence Bond (EVB) method offers a suitable framework to obtain reactive potentials through the coupling of non-reactive force fields. However, most of the implemente…

Investigating Atomic Contrast in Atomic Force Microscopy and Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy on Ionic Systems using Functionalized Tips

Leo Gross, Bruno Schuler, Fabian Mohn +7

Noncontact atomic force microscopy (NC-AFM) and Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) have become important tools for nanotechnology; however, their contrast mechanisms on the atomi…

Effect of quantization of vibrations on the structural properties of crystals

I. Scivetti, N. I. Gidopoulos, J. Kohanoff

We study the structural effects produced by the quantization of vibrational degrees of freedom in periodic crystals at zero temperature. To this end we introduce a methodology base…
