Crystal structure prediction using the minima hopping method

Open access
Amsler, Maximilian, Goedecker, Stefan·2010·The Journal of Chemical Physics

Abstract

A structure prediction method is presented based on the minima hopping method. To escape local minima, moves on the configurational enthalpy surface are performed by variable cell shape molecular dynamics. To optimize the escape steps the initial atomic and cell velocities are aligned to low curvature directions of the current local minimum. The method is applied to both silicon crystals and well-studied binary Lennard-Jones mixtures. For the latter new putative ground state structures are presented. It is shown that a high success rate is achieved and a reliable prediction of unknown ground state structures is possible.

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.
