Fluid-solid transition in simple systems using density functional theory.
A free energy functional for a crystal which contains both the symmetry-conserved and symmetry-broken parts of the direct pair correlation function has been used to investigate the fluid-solid transition in systems interacting via purely repulsive Weeks-Chandler-Anderson Lennard-Jones potential and the full Lennard-Jones potential. The results found for freezing parameters for the fluid-face ce...
متن کاملDensity functional theory in the solid state.
Density functional theory (DFT) has been used in many fields of the physical sciences, but none so successfully as in the solid state. From its origins in condensed matter physics, it has expanded into materials science, high-pressure physics and mineralogy, solid-state chemistry and more, powering entire computational subdisciplines. Modern DFT simulation codes can calculate a vast range of st...
متن کاملThe photochemistry of transition metal complexes using density functional theory.
The use of density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) to study the photochemistry of metal complexes is becoming increasingly important among chemists. Computational methods provide unique information on the electronic nature of excited states and their atomic structure, integrating spectroscopy observations on transient species and excited-state dynamics. In this contribut...
متن کاملFluid structure from density-functional theory
We treat various common fluid models, like the inverse-power, Asakura-Oosawa, and Lennard-Jones potentials, within the soft fundamental measure theory (SFMT). We show that this recently proposed density-functional approach is able to predict the pair correlations in the fluid phase reliably compared to computer simulations. Explicit expressions for certain quantities of SFMT are given, namely, ...
متن کاملPossibility of the Solid-Fluid Transition in Moving Periodic Systems
The steady sliding state of periodic structures such as charge density waves and flux line lattices is numerically studied based on the three dimensional driven random field XY model. We focus on the dynamical phase transition between plastic flow and moving solid phases controlled by the magnitude of the driving force. By analyzing the connectivity of co-moving clusters, we find that they perc...
