Predicting hot-electron free energies from ground-state data

Michele Ceriotti, Federico Grasselli, Chiheb Ben Mahmoud

Machine-learning potentials are usually trained on the ground-state, Born-Oppenheimer energy surface, which depends exclusively on the atomic positions and not on the simulation temperature. This disregards the effect of thermally excited electrons, that i ...
