Abstract

Computational techniques have been applied to study a broad range of chemical and physical properties of zinc oxide. Both interatomic-potential and density functional theory methods are used to investigate structural, thermodynamic, surface, and defect properties. We survey the structures and energies of nano-particulate zinc oxide.
