Nanocarbon research, development and innovation in Finland

Resources

These are resources for the atomistic simulation, analysis and characterization of carbon-based materials and their structure, generated by Finland-based research groups.

Atomistic structural models

These are structural models of carbon based materials derived from atomistic simulations (e.g., molecular dynamics or Monte Carlo).

  • Atomic structures derived from high-temperature and -pressure transformations from C60 fullerenes DOI
  • Nanoporous carbon structures of different densities generated through GAP molecular dynamics DOI
  • Amorphous carbon films generated through simulated deposition with GAP from 1eV to 100eV DOI

A starters guide to generating some of these structures is the TurboGAP tutorial of graphitization simulations.

Interatomic potentials

  • General purpose Gaussian approximation potential for CO DOI
  • GAP interatomic potential for amorphous carbon DOI
  • GAP interatomic potential for C60 DOI

Spectroscopy

Tools for spectroscopy prediction and/or analysis, useful for direct comparison with experiment.

  • XPS Prediction Server: A machine-learning-based online tool to predict the XPS spectrum of CHO-containing materials

Multimedia

  • Thermal spike during simulated deposition of tetrahedral amorphous carbon films (video) DOI
  • Deposition of amorphous carbon at different energies modeled with GAP (video) DOI
