We study the vibrational and electronic properties of (x)Na$_2$S-(1-x)GeS$_2$ glasses through DFT-based molecular dynamics simulations, at different sodium concentrations ($0<x<0.5$). We compute the vibrational density of states for the…
We compare the vibrational properties of model SiO_2 glasses generated by molecular-dynamics simulations using the effective force field of van Beest et al. (BKS) with those obtained when the BKS structure is relaxed using an ab initio…
Using molecular dynamics simulations we investigate the dependence of the structural and vibrational properties of the surfaces of sodo-silicate glasses on the sodium content as well as the nature of the surface. Two types of glass surfaces…
Structural, vibrational and thermal properties of densified sodium silicate (NS2) are investigated with classical molecular dynamics simulations of the glass and the liquid state. A systematic investigation of the glass structure with…

We use ab initio simulations to investigate the properties of a sodium borosilicate glass of composition 3Na_2O-B_2O_3-6SiO_2. We find that the broadening of the first peak in the radial distribution functions g_BO(r) and g_BNa(r) is due to…

The relaxation dynamics and the vibrational spectra of amorphous solids, such as metal alloys, have been intensely investigated as well separated topics in the past. The aim of this review is to summarize recent results in both these areas…
We studied the dynamics of the reconstructed Si (111) surface using a total-energy-vibrational-spectrum approach based on a non-orthogonal tight-binding Hamiltonian. We first established the size of the supercell sufficient to yield a…
