Abstract

Structural and dynamic properties of a large class of intercalation compounds can be modelled by a collection of ions interacting via a screened Coulomb potential and subjected to the corrugation potential produced by the host atoms. In this paper we discuss the results of Molecular Dynamics simulation studies of the ground state structure of RbC24 and related systems focussing primarily on the micro-structure i.e.on the nature of the domains and domain walls.
