论文摘要
无定形红磷(A-P)是元素结构化学中的剩余令人困惑的病例之一。在这里,我们从第一原理中阐明了A-P中的结构,稳定性和化学键合,结合了机器学习和密度功能性的神学(DFT)方法。我们表明,A-P结构的存在范围略高于与磷纳米棒密切相关的能量,并且A-P的稳定性与结构放松和中等范围的稳定性有关。因此,我们完成了同种异体磷的稳定范围[ANGEW。化学int。 ed。 2014,53,11629]到目前为止,包括先前了解的无定形相,我们在Phos-Phorus的所有主要阶段中量化了共价和范德华的相互作用。我们还研究了状态的电子密度,包括氢化A-P的电子密度。除了本研究之外,我们的结构模型有望使更广泛的第一原理研究(例如,基于A-P的电池材料)进行调查。
Amorphous red phosphorus (a-P) is one of the remaining puzzling cases in the structural chemistry of the elements. Here, we elucidate the structure, stability, and chemical bond-ing in a-P from first principles, combining machine-learning and density-functional theo-ry (DFT) methods. We show that a-P structures exist with a range of energies slightly higher than those of phosphorus nanorods, to which they are closely related, and that the stability of a-P is linked to the degree of structural relaxation and medium-range order. We thus complete the stability range of phosphorus allotropes [Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 11629] by now including the previously poorly understood amorphous phase, and we quantify the covalent and van der Waals interactions in all main phases of phos-phorus. We also study the electronic densities of states, including those of hydrogenated a-P. Beyond the present study, our structural models are expected to enable wider-ranging first-principles investigations - for example, of a-P-based battery materials.
