Lee Hsun Lecture Series

Topic: Computational Materials Discovery: New Developments and Surprising Discoveries

Speaker: Prof. Artem R. Oganov
          
Stony Brook University, USA

Time: 10:00-12:00 AM., (Mon.) Jul. 21, 2014

Venue: Room 403, Shi Changxu Building, IMR CAS

Abstract:

Thanks to powerful evolutionary algorithms, in particular to the USPEX method [1-3], it is now possible to predict both the stable compounds and their crystal structures at arbitrary P,T-conditions, given just the set of chemical elements. Recent developments include the extension of this algorithm to molecular crystals [4] (which allowed large structures to be handled easily, leading to revision of high-pressure structures of Mg(BH4)2 [5], proving earlier proposed “experimental” structure to be incorrect) and a new technique called evolutionary metadynamics [6]. Some of the results that I will discuss include:

1. Theoretical and experimental evidence for a new stable high-pressure phase of boron, γ-B [7], showing superhardness and charge transfer between boron atoms. 
2. New insulating and optically transparent, and experimentally confirmed, form of sodium [8]. 
3. Establishment of the structure of a carbon allotrope – M-carbon [1,9]. 
4. Predicted reactivity of noble gases under moderate pressures – Xe [10] and even He. 
5. Predicted stability of “impossible” chemical compounds – such as Na3Cl, Na2Cl, Na3Cl2, NaCl3, NaCl7 [11], Mg3O2 and MgO2 [12]. These compounds become stable under pressure and we already have compelling experimental evidence for some of them [11].
