Abstract

Excess free energies of solid Cu - Solid Sn and Solid Cu - liquid Sn have been calculated employing an adiabatic switching formalism in a Molecular Dynamics (MD) framework. The atomic interactions are described by modified embedded atom method (MEAM) potentials which includes the angular dependence of the electron density to describe bond bending forces necessary to model covalent materials.
