Abstract:Vacancies of the crystal is one of the core issues in solid physics, solid state chemistry, metallurgy and materials science. In this paper, we present the latest research on the vacancy formation energy and size dependence of vacancy formation energy. According to the vacancy formation energy of common methods and common description of the vacancy formation energy theory, the vcancy formation energy characterization, calculation and simulation methods are described; the nature and origin of the vacancy in nan… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
