Kresse and Hafner: ab initio molecular dynamics for liquid metals

Presented an ab initio molecular-dynamics method that recalculated the electronic ground state and Hellmann–Feynman forces at each ionic step using conjugate-gradient minimization and wave-function prediction.

Presented an ab initio molecular-dynamics method that recalculated the electronic ground state and Hellmann–Feynman forces at each ionic step using conjugate-gradient minimization and wave-function prediction.

Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.

Scientific scope

The record is the exact two-author 1993 rapid communication and its local-density-approximation method. Car–Parrinello dynamics, later VASP development, other electronic-structure methods and broader materials applications retain separate attribution.
