  2. 3 min. Research Talk: Identifying the Dimensionality of Crystal Structures

    12 Feb 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Franco Vera

    Today, researchers worldwide have identified over 100,000 distinct bulk materials. The underlying dimensionality of these materials is not always clear however, and as such researchers have sought to identify stable, lower dimensional materials derived from the bulk parent structures. A team of...

  3. IMA 2013 UQ: DFT-based Thermal Properties: Three Levels of Error Management

    02 Apr 2014 | | Contributor(s):: Kurt Lejaeghere

    It is often computationally expensive to predict finite-temperature properties of a crystal from density-functional theory (DFT). The temperature-dependent thermal expansion coefficient α, for example, is calculated from the phonon spectrum, and the melting temperature Tm can only be obtained...
