Description
"""""""""""
The *kolmogorov/crespi/z* style computes the Kolmogorov-Crespi interaction
potential as described in :ref:`(Kolmogorov) <KC05>`. An important simplification is made,
which is to take all normals along the z-axis.
.. math::
E = & \frac{1}{2} \sum_i \sum_{j \neq i} V_{ij} \\
V_{ij} = & e^{-\lambda(r_{ij} -z_0}) \left[ C + f(\rho_{ij}) + f(\rho_{ji}) \right] - A \left( \frac{r_{ij}}{z_0}\right)^{-6} + A \left( \frac{\textrm{cutoff}}{z_0}\right)^{-6} \\
\rho_{ij}^2 = & \rho_{ji}^2 = x_{ij}^2 + y_{ij}^2 \qquad \qquad (\mathbf{n}_i \equiv \mathbf{\hat{z}}) \\
f(\rho) = & e^{-(\rho/\delta)^2} \sum_{n=0}^2 C_{2n} \left( \rho/\delta \right)^{2n}
It is important to have a sufficiently large cutoff to ensure smooth forces.
Energies are shifted so that they go continuously to zero at the cutoff assuming
that the exponential part of :math:`V_{ij}` (first term) decays sufficiently fast.
This shift is achieved by the last term in the equation for :math:`V_{ij}` above.
This potential is intended for interactions between two layers of graphene.
Therefore, to avoid interaction between layers in multi-layered materials,
each layer should have a separate atom type and interactions should only
be computed between atom types of neighboring layers.
The parameter file (e.g. CC.KC), is intended for use with metal
:doc:`units <units>`, with energies in meV. An additional parameter, *S*\ ,
is available to facilitate scaling of energies in accordance with
:ref:`(vanWijk) <vanWijk>`.
This potential must be used in combination with hybrid/overlay.
Other interactions can be set to zero using pair_style *none*\ .
Restrictions
""""""""""""
This fix is part of the USER-MISC package. It is only enabled if
LAMMPS was built with that package. See the :doc:`Build package <Build_package>` doc page for more info.
