Decomposition Energy Calculation

Inquiry

The creation of energy-bearing materials (EMs) is growing swiftly due to military requirements. Thermal breakdown of EMs is a complex process. The development of EMs has been significantly impacted by the recent rapid growth of molecular dynamics (MD) simulation tools. Alfa Chemistry has the capacity to run MD simulations to determine the decomposition energy of a material.

Our Theory

We study the decomposition energy using efficient approximate density functional theory, such as Density Functional Based Tight Binding (DFTB) and the DFTB+ source package.

  • Density Functional Theory

In the Kohn-Sham (KS) DFT, the total electron energy is calculated using the KS energy functional.

Density Functional Theory

where the electron density has the form,

Density Functional Theory

ψi(r) is the one-electron KS orbital of a fictitious non-interacting electron system, Ts[n] is the kinetic energy of the non-interacting reference system, Exc[n] is the exchange-correlation energy functional, which is approximated in practice, υext is the external potential energy.

The KS orbitals are obtained by solving the one-electron Schrödinger equation,

Application:

Energy decomposition analysis (EDA) is a valuable analytical tool to classify intermolecular interaction energies into energy components such as electrostatic, polarization, charge transfer, exchange and correlation contributions and related chemical phenomena. EDA has been widely used in quantum chemistry. Studies using EDA methods are naturally well suited for assessing molecular bonding forces.
