Popis: | Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation with modified Brenner's reactive empirical bond order (REBO) potential is a powerful tool to investigate plasma wall interaction on divertor plates in a nuclear fusion device. However, MD simulation box's size is less than several nm for the performance of a computer. To extend the size of the MD simulation, we develop a hybrid simulation code between MD code using REBO potential and binary collision approximation (BCA) code. Using the BCA code instead of computing all particles with a high kinetic energy for every step in the MD simulation, considerable computation time is saved. By demonstrating a hydrogen atom injection on a graphite by the hybrid simulation code, it is found that the hybrid simulation code works efficiently in a large simulation box. 5 pages, 5 figures |
