Tight-binding bond parameters for dimers across the periodic table from density-functional theory

Jan Jenke, Alvin N. Ladines, Thomas Hammerschmidt +2

We obtain parameters for non-orthogonal and orthogonal TB models from two-atomic molecules for all combinations of elements of period 1 to 6 and group 3 to 18 of the periodic table…

Electronic structure based descriptor for characterizing local atomic environments

Jan Jenke, Aparna P. A. Subramanyam, Marc Densow +3

A quantitative descriptor of local atomic environments is often required for the analysis of atomistic data. Descriptors of the local atomic environment ideally provide physically…

BOPfox program for tight-binding and analytic bond-order potential calculations

T. Hammerschmidt, B. Seiser, M. E. Ford +11

Bond-order potentials (BOPs) provide a local and physically transparent description of the interatomic interaction. Here we describe the efficient implementation of analytic BOPs i…

Topologically close-packed phases in binary transition-metal compounds: matching high-throughput ab initio calculations to an empirical structure map

Thomas Hammerschmidt, Arthur F. Bialon, David G. Pettifor +1

In steels and single-crystal superalloys the control of the formation of topologically close-packed (TCP) phases is critical for the performance of the material. The structural sta…

The Tight-Binding method: application to AB s-valent dimer

D. G. Pettifor

The AB s-valent dimer is used to analyse bond formation and charge transfer within the tight-binding (TB) approximation. In this way a physical interpretation of the electronic str…

Van der Waals interactions in the ground state of Mg(BH4)2 from density functional theory

A. Bil, B. Kolb, R. Atkinson +3

In order to resolve an outstanding discrepancy between experiment and theory regarding the ground-state structure of Mg(BH4)2, we examine the importance of long-range dispersive in…
