Aluminium oxide (AlO$_\mathrm{x}$) tunnel junctions are important components in a range of nanoelectric devices including superconducting qubits where they can be used as Josephson junctions. While many improvements in the reproducibility…
We use molecular dynamics computer simulations to study the equilibrium properties of the surface of amorphous silica. Two types of geometries are investigated: i) clusters with different diameters (13.5\AA, 19\AA, and 26.5\AA) and ii) a…
Amorphous silica ($a-SiO_2$) is a widely used inorganic material. Interestingly, the relationship between the local atomic structures of $a-SiO_2$ and their effects on ductility and fracture is seldom explored. Here, we combine large-scale…
Atomistic simulations provide a meaningful way to determine the physico-chemical properties of liquids in a consistent theoretical framework. This approach takes on particular usefulness for the study of molten carbonates, in a context…
Structurally and chemically complex materials such as amorphous metallosilicates underpin major catalytic and separation technologies, yet their intrinsic complexity challenges reliable atomistic modeling under realistic conditions.…
