Dipole correction for surface supercell calculations
Abstract
When performing density-functional calculations of surfaces using a plane-wave pseudopotential code, it is necessary to embed a slab with two surfaces in a periodic supercell. In many situations, it is desirable to study an asymmetric slab with a net surface dipole density. The periodic boundary conditions imposed on the electrostatic potential then give rise to an artificial electric field across the slab. We present a dipole correction that cancels the artificial field, and show how this correction can be incorporated in the density-functional theory total-energy expression. The results are supported by total-energy calculations of water-molecule layers.

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.
