An optimized interatomic potential has been constructed for silicon using a modified Tersoff model. The potential reproduces a wide range of properties of Si and improves over existing potentials with respect to point defect structures and…
Thermal stability of silicene and thin silicon films is studied by molecular dynamics using two machine-learning potentials, SNAP and GAP. For SNAP potential, systems ranging from a single silicene layer to films of 36 layers are…
