Non-equilibrium atomic simulation for Frenkel–Kontorova model with moving dislocation at finite temperature

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/abaed4

Abstract

We apply the heat jet approach to realize atomic simulations at finite temperature for a Frenkel–Kontorova chain with moving dislocation. This approach accurately and efficiently controls the system temperature by injecting thermal fluctuations into the system from its boundaries, without modifying the governing equations for the interior domain. This guarantees the dislocation propagating in the atomic chain without nonphysical damping or deformation. In contrast to the non-equilibrium Nosé–Hoover heat bath, the heat jet approach efficiently suppresses boundary reflections while the moving dislocation and interior waves pass across the boundary. The system automatically returns back to the equilibrium state after all non-thermal motions pass away. We further apply this approach to study the impact of periodic potential and temperature field on the velocity of moving dislocation.
