Phys. Rev. Lett. 61, 869–872 (1988)First-Principles Interatomic Potential of Silica Applied to Molecular DynamicsReceived 16 March 1988; published in the issue dated 15 August 1988 A new method to provide interatomic pair potentials from ab initio Hartree-Fock self-consistent-field calculations is proposed; potentials are calculated for model clusters of silica (SiO2). They are tested in the molecular-dynamics simulation of crystalline states, in which four known polymorphs of silica are shown to be dynamically stable. © 1988 The American Physical Society URL:
