Foster present a new parameterization of Pettifor's bond order potential for carbon, enabling direct molecular dynamics simulations of graphene growth on copper. In the image, the big bronze balls are copper atoms, red small balls are carbon atoms in an initial graphene island, and small blue balls are deposited carbon atoms. Traces of some selected depositing carbon atoms are shown by small gray balls at time-resolved locations. Without any assumptions regarding the graphene structures, other than the random addition of carbon adatoms, MD simulations have enabled high fidelity studies of defect formation during graphene growth.
