摘要

En 中文
Radiation can drive the electrons in a material out of thermal equilibrium with the nuclei, producing hot, transient electronic states that modify the interatomic potential energy surface. We present a rigorous formulation of two-temperature molecular dynamics that can accommodate these electronic effects in the form of electronic-temperature-dependent force fields. Such a force field is presented for silicon, which has been constructed to reproduce the ab initio-derived thermodynamics of the diamond phase for electronic temperatures up to 2.5 eV, as well as the structural dynamics observed experimentally under nonequilibrium conditions in the femtosecond regime. This includes nonthermal melting on a subpicosecond timescale to a liquidlike state for electronic temperatures above similar to 1 eV. The methods presented in this paper lay a rigorous foundation for the large-scale atomistic modeling of electronically driven structural dynamics with potential applications spanning the entire domain of radiation damage.
