In this paper we present new parameters of the TB-SMA interatomic potentials for the Pt/Cu(111) surface alloy. The parameters are fitted using both the experimental and {\it ab initio} data. The potentials reproduce not only the bulk…
We investigate the atomic and electronic structure of a single layer of pentacene on the Au(111) surface using density functional theory. To find the candidate structures we strain match the pentacene crystal geometry with the Au(111)…
Using a hydrogen molecule as a test system we demonstrate how to compute the effective potential according to the formalism of the new density functional theory (DFT), in which the basic variable is the set of spherically averaged densities…
A geometry-based density functional theory is presented for mixtures of hard spheres, hard needles and hard platelets; both the needles and the platelets are taken to be of vanishing thickness. Geometrical weight functions that are…
Gold clusters Aun of size n = 2 to 12 atoms were studied by the density-functional theory with an ab-initio pseudopotential and a generalized gradient approximation. Geometry optimizations starting from a number of initial candidate…
Semi-empirical interatomic potentials have been developed for Al, alpha-Ti, and gamma-TiAl within the embedded atomic method (EAM) by fitting to a large database of experimental as well as ab-initio data. The ab-initio calculations were…
The central approximation made in classical molecular dynamics simulation of materials is the interatomic potential used to calculate the forces on the atoms. Great effort and ingenuity is required to construct viable functional forms and…
The Work function (f)is fundamental for chemistry and electronics. Additionally, f can be used to examine the validity of the theoretical surfaces by comparing it with experimental f, even in the absence of long-range orders. In the…
Using density-functional theory (DFT) we calculate the Gibbs free energy to determine the lowest-energy structure of a RuO_2(110) surface in thermodynamic equilibrium with an oxygen-rich environment. The traditionally assumed stoichiometric…
Combining classical electrodynamics and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we develop a general and rigorous theoretical framework that describes the energetics of metal surfaces under high electric fields. We show that the…
Rigorous mathematical foundations of density functional theory are revisited, with some use of infinitesimal (nonstandard) methods. A thorough treatment is given of basic properties of internal energy and ground-state energy functionals…
Recently, Theophilou (J. Chem.Phys {\bf 149} 074104 (2018)) showed that a set of spherically symmetric densities determines uniquely the external potential in molecules and solids. Here, spherically symmetric Kohn-Sham-like equations are…
The formation of ordered phases of dimethyl-disulfide on the Au(111) surface has been investigated by means of Low-Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED), X-ray Photoemission Spectroscopy (XPS), and state-of-the-art Density Functional Theory…
Aqueous lithium chloride solutions up to very high concentrations were investigated in classical molecular dynamics simulations. Various force fields based on the 12-6 Lennard-Jones model, parametrized for non-polarizable water solvent…
The accurate molecular dynamics simulation of weakly bound adhesive complexes, such as supported graphene, is challenging due to the lack of an adequate interface potential. Instead of the widely used Lennard-Jones potential for weak and…
The effect of external strain on surface properties of simple metals is considered within the modified stabilized jellium model. The equations for the stabilization energy of the deformed Wigner-Seitz cells are derived as a function of the…
The high-temperature properties of the Al(111) surface are studied by molecular-dynamics simulation. This surface does not melt below the bulk melting point, but can be superheated. Superheating of metal surfaces has been recently observed…
We investigate, by means of first-principles calculations, structural and transport properties of junctions made of symmetric dithiolated molecules placed between Au electrodes. As the electrodes are pulled apart, we find that it becomes…
Orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT) runs at low computational cost that scales linearly with the number of simulated atoms, making it suitable for large-scale material simulations. It is generally considered that OF-DFT strictly…
The organization of water molecules and ions between charged mineral surfaces determines the stability of colloidal suspensions and the strength of phase-separated particulate gels. In this article we assemble a density functional that…
