Molecular dynamics computer simulation of surface properties of crystalline potassium chloride
Abstract
Computer simulation of the (100) face of crystalline potassium chloride has been achieved using the method of molecular dynamics and a lamina model of thickness 10 ionic layers. The basic cell contained 360 ions, interacting via a Tosi–Fumi potential. A solution has been obtained for the long range correction to the Coulomb potential for an ionic lamina. This differs significantly from the solution for a 3-dimensional lattice.Surface distortion, surface energy and stress have been evaluated and agree well with experiment and previous model calculations. The ratios of surface mean square amplitudes of vibration perpendicular to the surface divided by the bulk values show an approximately 25 % anharmonic enhancement over previous calculations. The layerwise velocity autocorrelation functions yield power spectra featuring a peak for the surface mono-layer at 75 cm–1 which compares favourably with the frequency of surface acoustic modes predicted by previous calculations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
