In this article, we discuss how microstructural length and time scales may be reached in atomistic simulations. We bridge from electronic properties to properties of materials by employing a systematic coarse graining of the electronic structure to effective interatomic interactions. In combination with extended time scale simulations the elementary processes of microstructural evolution may then...
Recent experiments have revealed the possibility of precise electron beam manipulation of silicon impurities in graphene. Motivated by these findings and studies on metal surface quantum corrals, the question arises what kind of embedded Si structures are possible within the hexagonal lattice, and how these are limited by the distortion caused by the preference of Si for sp3 hybridization. In this...
