TLDR
The pseudopotential is of an analytic form that gives optimal efficiency in numerical calculations using plane waves as a basis set and is separable and has optimal decay properties in both real and Fourier space.Abstract:
We present pseudopotential coefficients for the first two rows of the Periodic Table. The pseudopotential is of an analytic form that gives optimal efficiency in numerical calculations using plane waves as a basis set. At most, seven coefficients are necessary to specify its analytic form. It is separable and has optimal decay properties in both real and Fourier space. Because of this property, the application of the nonlocal part of the pseudopotential to a wave function can be done efficiently on a grid in real space. Real space integration is much faster for large systems than ordinary multiplication in Fourier space, since it shows only quadratic scaling with respect to the size of the system. We systematically verify the high accuracy of these pseudopotentials by extensive atomic and molecular test calculations. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.read more

TL;DR: Both frameworks show excellent selectivity for CO2 among other gases (N2, O2, H2 , and Ar), which has been correlated to the specific interaction of CO2 with the -NH2 and NN� functionalized pore surface.

TL;DR: The primary role of VC additive in the EC solvent is revealed and a new mechanism involving the VC additive preferentially reacts with the EC anion radical to suppress the 2e reduction of EC and enhance the initial SEI formation is found, contrary to the conventional scenario.

TL;DR: Experimental evidence is shown for the in situ formation of free-standing graphene-like ZnO mono- and bilayer ZnNO membranes suspended in graphene pores and local electron energy loss spectroscopy confirms the membranes comprise only Zn and O.

Unexpected hydrogen bond dynamics in imidazolium-based ionic liquids.
TL;DR: Using first-principles molecular dynamics simulations, the structural and dynamical hydrogen bonding in the ionic liquid is characterized and a superior role for the most acidic hydrogen bond (at H2) as compared to the two other hydrogen atoms at the rear.
