摘要
We present an approximate scheme for the dynamical annealing of electrons in Car-Parrinello-type calculations. Our approach is based on the use of the total electron density (rather than the wave functions) as the fictitious variable that drives the annealing. The Thomas-Fermi approximation is employed to describe the kinetic energy of the electrons. Our calculation of the ground-state configuration of either c-Si or H/Si(100)1 x 1 is found to be in excellent agreement with both experiment and detailed Car-Parrinello simulations. The method can be used as an "economical" first-order solution to numerous structure-optimization problems.
