Exploiting the quantum mechanically derived force field for functional materials simulations
Abstract The computational design of functional materials relies heavily on large-scale atomistic simulations. Such simulations are often problematic for conventional classical force fields, which require tedious and time-consuming parameterization of interaction parameters. The problem can be solve...
