We characterize the superionic phase transition and the lattice and electronic structures of the archetypal type-I superionic conductor alpha-AgI using extensive first-principles molecular dynamics calculations. We find that superionicity is signaled by a ...
We introduce a new quantum mechanics/mol. mechanics based method to drive electron transfer reactions. Our approach uses the dynamically restrained electrostatic potential derived charges of the quantum atoms as a reaction coordinate, and allows an estn. o ...
The electrostatic continuum solvent model developed by [Fattebert and Gygi J. Comput. Chem. 23, 662 (2002); Int. J. Quantum Chem. 93, 139 (2003)] is combined with a first-principles formulation of the cavitation energy based on a natural quantum-mechanical ...
In plane wave based electronic structure calcns. the interaction of core and valence electrons is usually represented by at. effective core potentials. They are constructed in such a way that the shape of the at. valence orbitals outside a certain core rad ...
The Quantum-ESPRESSO package is a multipurpose and multi-platform software for ab-initio calculations of condensed matter (periodic and disordered) systems. Codes in the package are based on density functional theory and on a plane wave/pseudopotential des ...
The combination of time-dependent d. functional theory (TDDFT) for the description of excited states with a hybrid quantum mechanics/mol. mechanics (QM/MM) approach enables the study of photochem. processes in complex environments. Here, we present a short ...
We review in detail an ab initio methodology-Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics in the ensemble density-functional approach-able to handle molecular dynamics studies of metal surfaces in a computationally efficient and robust way. A summary of recent appl ...
In a recent work [Laio, A., VandeVondele, J., Rothlisberger, U. J. Phys. Chem. B 2002 106, 7300] a novel method has been proposed to define dynamical electrostatic potential derived (D-RESP) charges for systems described within a quantum mechanics/mol. mec ...
A review discusses the basic concepts of the Car-Parrinello method, some of the recent methodol. extensions, focusing on aspects with potential interest for applications in medicinal chem., and the advantages and limitations of new modeling tools. ...
We present a fully Hamiltonian and computationally efficient scheme to include the electrostatic effects due to the classical environment in a Car-Parrinello mixed quantum mechanics/mol. mechanics (QM/MM) method. The polarization due to the MM atoms close ...
