Abstract

Modified Embedded Atom Method '92 (MEAM92) developed by Baskes is the most popular among researchers using Embedded Atom Method series, because MEAM92 has high reliability for bulk system, and parameters are determined consistently. However, the applicability of this method to non-bulk systems, such as surface, is still uncertain. In such background, in order to expand the applicability to non-bulk systems, Kunio Takahashi has proposed Dimer Reference Modified Embedded Atom Method (DR-MEAM). The objective of this work is to discuss the applicability to non-bulk systems by determining the DR-MEAM parameters fitted to the results of clusters and bulk calculated by MEAM92. It is suggested as one of the effective methods for lining up the candidates of optimized parameters consistently. Additionally, calculated surface properties by determined parameters for Cu suggest the valid values in comparison with the other methods, and the possibility of DR-MEAM for expanding to non-bulk systems.
