First-principles calculations of equilibrium silicon isotope fractionation among mantle minerals

Silicon isotope fractionation factors for mantle silicate minerals, including olivine, wadsleyite, ringwoodite, pyroxenes, garnet (pyrope), majorite, and Mg-perovskite, are calculated using density functional theory. Our results show that equilibrium fractionations of Si isotopes are negligible among pyroxenes, olivine, and pyrope, but are significant between olivine and its polymorphs (wadsley...

Concentration effect on equilibrium fractionation of Mg-Ca isotopes in carbonate minerals: Insights from first-principles calculations

Naturally occurring carbonates have a wide variation in Mg and Ca contents. Using the density-functional-theory calculations, this study examines the effect of Mg and Ca concentrations on bond lengths and equilibrium fractionation factors of Mg-Ca isotopes among calcite-type carbonate minerals (MgxCa1 xCO3). Mg content x and Ca content (1 x) of the investigated carbonate minerals range from 1/1...

First-principles calculations of interstitial boron in silicon

We perform first-principles total-energy calculations to identify the stable and metastable configurations of interstitial B in Si. We calculate formation energies and ionization levels for several equilibrium ionic configurations in different possible charge states. In all charge states the ground state consists of a B atom close to a substitutional site and a Si self-interstitial nearby. The ...

Enzymatic Kinetic Isotope Effects from First-Principles Path Sampling Calculations.

In this study, we develop and test a method to determine the rate of particle transfer and kinetic isotope effects in enzymatic reactions, specifically yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (YADH), from first-principles. Transition path sampling (TPS) and normal mode centroid dynamics (CMD) are used to simulate these enzymatic reactions without knowledge of their reaction coordinates and with the inclusi...

Heat transport in silicon from first-principles calculations

Using harmonic and anharmonic force constants extracted from density functional calculations within a supercell, we have developed a relatively simple but general method to compute thermodynamic and thermal properties of any crystal. First, from the harmonic, cubic, and quartic force constants, we construct a force field for molecular dynamics. It is exact in the limit of small atomic displacem...
