Calculations And Simulations Of Low-Dimensional Materials Av Ying Dai, Wei Wei, Yandong Ma, Chengwang Niu

<b>Calculations and Simulations of Low-Dimensional Materials</b><p><b>A comprehensive guide to methods for calculating and simulating the properties of low-dimensional materials</b><p>Two-dimensional materials are those, such as graphene and 2D oxides, whose thickness is so small as to approach the atomic scale. Potential applications for these materials exist in an enormous range of scientific and industrial fields. A previous era of low-dimensional materials focused on direct experimentation to demonstrate the properties, reactions, and potential applications of these materials; however, in recent years, calculation and simulation have been shown to have considerable predictive power, reducing the period between design and deployment of these potentially critical materials. <p><i>Calculations and Simulations of Low-Dimensional Materials</i> offers the first comprehensive survey of this exciting new approach to low-dimensional materials. It guides readers through the foundational phys
