Modeling generalized stacking fault in Au using tight-binding potential combined with a simulated annealing method

Tight-binding potential combined with a simulated annealing method is used to study the generalized stacking fault structure and energy of gold. The potential is chosen to fit band structures and total energies from a set of first-principles calculations (Phys. Rev. B54, 4519 (1996)). It is found...
