The atomic cluster expansion is a general polynomial expansion of the atomic energy in multi-atom basis functions. Here we implement the atomic cluster expansion in the performant C++ code verb+PACE+ that is suitable for use in large scale atomistic simulations. We briefly review the atomic cluster expansion and give detailed expressions for energies and forces as well as efficient algorithms for their evaluation. We demonstrate that the atomic cluster expansion as implemented in verb+PACE+ shifts a previously established Pareto front for machine learning interatomic potentials towards faster and more accurate calculations. Moreover, general purpose parameterizations are presented for copper and silicon and evaluated in detail. We show that the new Cu and Si potentials significantly improve on the best available potentials for highly accurate large-scale atomistic simulations.

Transition metal impurities such as nickel, copper, and iron, in solid-state materials like silicon have a significant impact on the electrical performance of integrated circuits and solar cells. To study the impact of copper impurities inside bulk s
ilicon on the electrical properties of the material, one needs to understand the configurational space of copper atoms incorporated inside the silicon lattice. In this work, we performed ReaxFF reactive force field based molecular dynamics simulations, studying different configurations of individual and crystalline copper atoms inside bulk silicon by looking at the diffusional behavior of copper in silicon. The ReaxFF Cu/Si parameter set was developed by training against DFT data, including the energy barrier for an individual Cu-atom inside a silicon lattice. We found that the diffusion of copper atoms has a direct relationship with the temperature. Moreover, it is also shown that individual copper atoms start to clusterize inside bulk silicon at elevated temperatures. Our simulation results provide a comprehensive picture of the effects of temperature and copper concentration on the crystallization of individual copper inside silicon lattice. Finally, the stress-strain relationship of Cu/Si compounds under uniaxial tensile loading have been obtained. Our results indicate a decrease in the elastic modulus with increasing level of Cu-impurity concentration. We observe spontaneous microcracking of the Si during the stress-strain tests as a consequence of the formation of a small Cu clusters adjacent to the Si surface.
Within density-functional theory, perturbation theory~(PT) is the state-of-the-art formalism for assessing the response to homogeneous electric fields and the associated material properties, e.g., polarizabilities, dielectric constants, and Raman int
ensities. Here we derive a real-space formulation of PT and present an implementation within the all-electron, numeric atom-centered orbitals electronic structure code FHI-aims that allows for massively-parallel calculations. As demonstrated by extensive validation, this allows the rapid computation of accurate response properties of molecules and solids. As an application showcase, we present harmonic and anharmonic Raman spectra, the latter obtained by combining hundreds of thousands of PT calculations with textit{ab initio} molecular dynamics. By using the PBE exchange-correlation functional with many-body van der Waals corrections, we obtain spectra in good agreement with experiment especially with respect to lineshapes for the isolated paracetamol molecule and two polymorphs of the paracetamol crystal.
We present a thermodynamic description of crystal plasticity. Our formulation is based on the Langer-Bouchbinder-Lookman thermodynamic dislocation theory (TDT), which asserts the fundamental importance of an effective temperature that describes the s
tate of configurational disorder and therefore the dislocation density of the crystalline material. We extend the TDT description from isotropic plasticity to crystal plasticity with many slip systems. Finite-element simulations show favourable comparison with experiments on polycrystal fcc copper under uniaxial compression, tension, and simple shear. The thermodynamic theory of crystal plasticity thus provides a thermodynamically consistent and physically rigorous description of dislocation motion in crystals. We also discuss new insights about the interaction of dislocations belonging to different slip systems.
We present a detailed discussion of our novel diagrammatic coupled cluster Monte Carlo (diagCCMC) [Scott et al. J. Phys. Chem. Lett. 2019, 10, 925]. The diagCCMC algorithm performs an imaginary-time propagation of the similarity-transformed coupled c
luster Schrodinger equation. Imaginary-time updates are computed by stochastic sampling of the coupled cluster vector function: each term is evaluated as a randomly realised diagram in the connected expansion of the similarity-transformed Hamiltonian. We highlight similarities and differences between deterministic and stochastic linked coupled cluster theory when the latter is re-expressed as a sampling of the diagrammatic expansion, and discuss details of our implementation that allow for a walker-less realisation of the stochastic sampling. Finally, we demonstrate that in the presence of locality, our algorithm can obtain a fixed errorbar per electron while only requiring an asymptotic computational effort that scales quartically with system size, independently of truncation level in coupled cluster theory. The algorithm only requires an asymptotic memory costs scaling linearly, as demonstrated previously. These scaling reductions require no ad hoc modifications to the approach.
We report high resolution transmission electron microscopy and classical molecular dynamics simulation results of mechanically stretching copper nanowires conducting to linear atomic suspended chains (LACs) formation. In contrast with some previous e
xperimental and theoretical work in literature that stated that the formation of LACs for copper should not exist our results showed the existence of LAC for the [111], [110], and [100] crystallographic directions, being thus the sequence of most probable occurence.
