Lithium oxide and superionic behaviour - A study using potentials from periodic AB initio calculations

A simple general methodology for obtaining interionic potentials from periodic ab initio calculations is presented, using periodic Hartree-Fock theory as implemented in the program CRYSTAL. To test the approach, two-body potentials are generated for Li2O. Results obtained from our new potential are...
