摘要: We apply a quantum-mechanics/molecular-mechanics (QM/MM) scheme to simulate the migration of charged defects in alpha-quartz. A QM/MM framework together with self-interaction correction (SIC) was used investigate stability dimer defect and E'(1) center The use SIC makes unstable alpha-quartz, agreement experimental failure identifying this defect, while effects error on E-1(') are negligible. Moreover, we conjecture that by overcoming low energy barrier, puckering mechanism (ideally heading from SIC-free calculations) can be reiterated allowing drift positive charge localized an overcoordinated oxygen atom. This process regarded as important channel structural reorganization deficient silica presence strong polarizing electric fields.
