This directory contains potential files for different elements and
alloys, as used by LAMMPS for various pair styles. See the
description of the "pair_style" and "pair_coeff" commands for details
of the file formats and the various styles in LAMMPS that read these
files.
The prefix of each file indicates the element(s) it is parameterized
for. For EAM files it may also have some identifying characters.
si = Silicon
sic = Silicon and Carbon
auu3 = Gold universal 3
The suffix of each file indicates the pair style it is used with:
eam embedded atom method (EAM) single element, DYNAMO funcfl format
eam.alloy EAM multi-element alloy, DYNAMO setfl format
eam.fs Finnis-Sinclair EAM multi-element alloy
meam modified EAM (MEAM) library and individual elements/alloys
sw Stillinger-Weber potential
tersoff Tersoff potential
airebo AI-REBO (Brenner) potential
