| Summary: | We investigate the charge-state effects on charge transfer of helium ions in gold nanosheet using the time-dependent density functional theory non-adiabatically coupled to the molecular dynamics. In order to characterize and extract the charge-state information of incident particles inside the nanosheet, we develop two novel computational methods. It is found that the charge transfer behavior of He ion in gold nanosheet is sensitive to its charge state at the time of incident. Analysis of these results allows us to gain new insights in the interaction between He ions and gold nanosheet. This work validates the ability of current methodology in dealing with ion collisions in materials. |
