The present study proposes a method to describe the equilibrium thermodynamics of a model electrode material, LTO, based on the Monte-Carlo simulation (MC), for which the energetic parameters are determined by the density functional theory (DFT).

In this paper we discuss possible mechanisms of PV annealing in Si. Our approach includes a combination of density functional theory and lattice kinetic Monte-Carlo (LKMC) simulations. The density functional theory is used to find the binding energies and jump barriers for P-V pair at different separations (from one to three interatomic bonds between complex constituents) and in different charge states. The mobility of the complex is simulated by LKMC with event probabilities calculated based on the energies from ab-initio calculations. .
