Vacancy formation energies in metals: A comparison of MetaGGA with LDA and GGA exchange–correlation functionals

TL;DR: In this article, the results of density-functional-theory based calculations of the vacancy formation energies in metals using the revised Tao-Perdew-Staroverov-Scuseria (revTPSS) functional were reported.

Second-Nearest-Neighbor Correlations from Connection of Atomic Packing Motifs in Metallic Glasses and Liquids

TL;DR: In this article, the atomic correlations characterizing the second peak in the radial distribution function (RDF) of metallic glasses and liquids were analyzed from the perspective of different connection schemes of atomic packing motifs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase diagram and low-temperature behavior of oxygen ordering in YBa 2 Cu 3 O z using ab initio interactions

TL;DR: It is shown that saturation of some pair-correlation functions at low temperature to a concentration-independent value makes the model quasi-one-dimensional and provides a simple argument for the existence of a low-temperature, low-O-concentration, orthorhombic phase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of the solid-liquid interfacial free energy along a coexistence line by Gibbs-Cahn integration

TL;DR: The orientational anisotropy in the excess interface energy, stress and entropy, calculated using the conventional Gibbs dividing surface, are seen to be significantly larger than the relatively small anisotropies in gamma(sl) itself.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atomistic characterization of the Cu–Pb solid–liquid interface

TL;DR: In this paper, an embedded atom model (EAM) and molecular-dynamics simulation was used to examine the equilibrium interface between solid Cu and liquid Pb at a temperature just above the melting point of Pb (625 K).
