Identifying the ground state structures of point defects in solids - npj Computational Materials
Point defects are a universal feature of crystals. Their identification is addressed by combining experimental measurements with theoretical models. The standard modelling approach is, however, prone to missing the ground state atomic configurations associated with energy-lowering reconstructions from the idealised crystallographic environment. Missed ground states compromise the accuracy of calculated properties. To address this issue, we report an approach to navigate the defect configurational landscape using targeted bond distortions and rattling. Application of our workflow to eight materials (CdTe, GaAs, Sb2S3, Sb2Se3, CeO2, In2O3, ZnO, anatase-TiO2) reveals symmetry breaking in each host crystal that is not found via conventional local minimisation techniques. The point defect distortions are classified by the associated physico-chemical factors. We demonstrate the impact of these defect distortions on derived properties, including formation energies, concentrations and charge transition levels. Our work presents a step forward for quantitative modelling of imperfect solids.

Dewi LangletWhat do you think about Frontiers journals, are they predatory?

Hello! Energy analyst with a focus on grid edge and interested in everything related to the electric grid, the backbone of decarbonization.
I also co-run 2 Twitter accounts (@IrishEnergyBot and @USEnergyBot) providing daily updates on the role of renewables in electricity generation.
Currently based in Switzerland, grew up in China, and spent the vast majority of adulthood in the US. So, a hodgepodge of things.
MarilynPFSomeone gave me great advice when I started here. Don’t be a wallflower, just scrolling through your timeline. Boost the posts that made you stop a moment. Say hello to others. You’ll be an “old-timer” in a few days. Don’t just follow all the same people who are like you. Use your filter to not see topics that wear you down. Visit other countries through their photos. This place is what WE make it. Let’s build a real community. #newbies #welcome
Jacqueline Houtman PhDHi, I'm Jacqueline.
For my PhD research I studied coronaviruses before they were cool. Now I'm a freelance science writer.
I write about climate and infectious diseases as a member of the Pandemic Tracking Collective (an offshoot of the COVID Tracking Project) for The Rockefeller Foundation.
I have published an award-winning middle grade novel, and a YA biography of Bayard Rustin.
I'm also a dance fitness instructor and election official. I am addicted to jigsaw puzzles. #Introductions
