Discovering Amorphous Indium Phosphide Nanostructures with High-Temperature ab Initio Molecular Dynamics

We employ high-temperature ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) as a sampling approach to discover low-energy, semiconducting, indium phosphide nanostructures. Starting from under-coordinated models of InP (e.g. a single layer of InP(111)), rapid rearrangement into a stabilized, higher-coordinate but...
