This tutorial explains how to specify the parameters for the Au-Si MEAM potential in MD++. It starts with the parameters in pure Au and pure Si potentials, then talks about the Au-Si cross potential.


Potential for Pure Elements

MEAM Potential for Au

We use the 'Au' potential whose parameters are originally given in M. I. Baskes, Phys. Rev. B 46, 2727 (1992), and later modified by S. Ryu, et al. Model. Simul. Mater. Sci. Eng. 17, 075008 (2009).

The main parameters in the MEAM potential is specified in the meamf file. (In MD++, this file is in the potentials/MEAMDATA folder.) The lines correspond to 'Au' is given below. Most of these parameters correspond to Table III of Baskes PRB (1992), as shown below.

rozero will be important only for cross-potential. ibar is a setting used in the equation of state (EOS), and will be explained later.

MEAM Potential for Si

We use the 'Siz' potential whose parameters are originally given in M. I. Baskes, Phys. Rev. B 46, 2727 (1992), and later modified by S. Ryu, et al. Model. Simul. Mater. Sci. Eng. 17, 075008 (2009).
