X Abstract

A density functional technique for calculating interactions between highly charged ions and solids is presented, and the application of this technique to the simulation of an Ar7+ ion passing through a graphene sheet is demonstrated. The simulation is initiated with electronic states obtained by superimposing the individual electronic states of an ion and a solid. When the ion starts to move, the real-time propagation of all electron wave functions is treated. Also presented is a technique for gradually accelerating an ion up to a targeted velocity in order to minimize electronic excitations in the ion even without interaction with a solid surface. These techniques are suitable for analyzing bombardment of solids by highly charged, high-speed ions.

RIS BibTeX
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
