Modified genetic algorithms to model atomic cluster structures: CuSi clusters
This paper presents the results obtained using a genetic algorithm (GA) to search for stable structures of Cu-silicon clusters. In this work the GA uses a semiempirical energy function to find the best cluster structures, which are further optimized using density functional theory. For small cluster...
