AbstractStructural correlations at the Si(111)/Si3N4(0001) interface are studied using the molecular dynamics (MD) method. In the bulk, Si is described by the Stillinger-Weber potential and Si3N4 by an interaction potential which contains two-body (steric, Coulomb, electronic polarizabilities) and three-body (bond bending and stretching) terms. At the interface, the charge transfer from silicon to nitrogen is taken from LCAO electronic structure calculations. Using these Si, Si3N4 and interface interactions in MD simulations, the interface structure (atomic positions, bond lengths, and bond angles) is determined. Results for fracture in silicon are also presented.

Classical molecular dynamics simulations identify the size of the central atom and the angle flexibility as important molecular features contributing to the lower viscosity of phosphonium based ionic liquids compared to their ammonium analogues.

Molecular dynamics (MD) is a valuable tool for the investigation of functional elements in biomolecules, providing information on dynamic properties and processes. Previous work by our group has characterized static geometric properties of the two MHCα-helices comprising the peptide binding region recognized by T cells. We build upon this work and used several spline models to approximate the overall shape of MHCα-helices. We applied this technique to a series of MD simulations of alloreactive MHC molecules that allowed us to capture the dynamics of MHCα-helices’ steric configurations. Here, we discuss the variability of spline models underlying the geometric analysis with varying polynomial degrees of the splines.
