Variable-charge interatomic potentials for molecular-dynamics simulations of TiO2
An interatomic potential model has been developed for molecular-dynamics simulations of TiO2 ~rutile! based on the formalism of Streitz and Mintmire @J. Adhes. Sci. Technol. 8, 853 ~1994!#, in which atomic charges vary dynamically according to the generalized electronegativity equalization principle. The present model potential reproduces the vibrational density of states, the pressure-dependen...
متن کاملCharacterization of titanium dioxide nanoparticles using molecular dynamics simulations.
Molecular dynamics simulations of titanium dioxide nanoparticles in the three commonly occurring phases (anatase, brookite, and rutile) are reported. The structural properties inferred by simulated X-ray diffraction patterns of the nanoparticles were investigated. The titanium-oxygen bond length as a function of size, phase, and temperature was determined and was found to be dependent on the co...
متن کاملNONSTOICHIOMETRIC COMPOUNDS Use of massively parallel molecular dynamics simulations for radiation damage in pyrochlores
DL_POLY_3 is a general purpose molecular dynamics (MD) simulation package designed to simulate systems of the order of tens of millions of particles and beyond by efficiently harnessing the power of modern computer clusters. Here we discuss the package design, functionality and report on performance and capability limits. We then report the application of DL_POLY_3 to study radiation cascades i...
متن کاملSelf-interstitial clusters in radiation damage accumulation: coupled molecular dynamics and metadynamics simulations
Self-interstitial interactions causing volume expansion in bcc Fe are studied through an idealized microstructure evolution model in which only self-interstial atoms (SIAs) are inserted. Using a combination of non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations and a metadynamics algorithm, meta-stable SIA clusters are observed to nucleate and grow into dislocation loops or localized amorphous phase...
