We have investigated the relaxation of single and double layer stepped Si(100) surfaces depending on working cell size and heat treatment by MD simulation based on LJ-AT empirical potential energy function. It is found that smooth relaxation can be satisfied for both types of stepped Si(100) surfaces by continuous MD runs. The dependence of relaxation on the size of working cell is found only for single layer stepped Si(100) surface. The total potential energy calculation by MD shows that double layer Si(100) surface is more stable than the single layer stepped Si(100) surface.

Molecular-dynamics simulations of silicene nanoribbons under strain Ince, Alper; Erkoç, Şakir (2012-01-01) Structural properties of silicene nanoribbons (SiNRs) of varying width have been investigated under 5% and 10% uniaxial strain via classical Molecular-Dynamics simulations at 1 and 300?K temperatures by the aid of atomistic many-body potential energy functions (PEFs). It has been found that under strain, SiNRs show such material properties: they are very ductile, with considerable toughness and a very long plastic range before fragmentation.
Molecular-dynamics simulation of radiation damage on copper clusters Erkoç, Şakir (2000-07-01) The effect of radiation damage on copper clusters has been investigated by performing molecular-dynamics simulation using empirical potential energy function for interaction between copper atoms. The external radiation is modeled by giving extra kinetic energy in the range of 5- 50 eV to initially chosen atom in the cluster. It has been found that the atom having extra kinetic energy dissociates independently from the amount of given energy in the studied range.
Melting and fragmentation of nickel nanoparticles: Molecular-dynamics simulations Gunes, B; Erkoç, Şakir (2000-12-01) Melting and fragmentation behaviors of Ni-429 cluster have been studied with molecular-dynamics simulations using a size-dependent empirical model potential energy function. To monitor thermal behaviors of the cluster, we calculated some physical quantities such as average potential energy per atom, specific heat, radial atomic distribution, bond length distribution, average interatomic distance, nearest neighbor distance and average coordination number as a function of temperature. The roles of the surface...
Cluster, surface and bulk properties of ZnCd binary alloys: Molecular-dynamics simulations Erkoç, Şakir (2005-01-01) The structural and electronic properties of isolated neutral Zn Cd-n clusters for m+n <= 3 have been investigated by performing density functional theory calculations at B3LYP level. The optimum geometries, vibrational frequencies, electronic structures, and the possible dissosiation channels of the clusters considered have been obtained. An empirical many-body potential energy function (PEF), which comprices two- and three-body atomic interactions, has been developed to investigate the structural features ...
Energetics of arsenic terminated GaAs(001) surfaces Erkoç, Şakir; Kokten, H (2000-09-01) We have investigated systematically the energetics of arsenic terminated GaAs(001) surfaces, Available surface models proposed in the literature have been considered, and relaxation and surface energies of each model have been calculated using an empirical many-body potential energy function comprising two and three-body atomic interactions.
