Modelling of neutral vacancies in forsterite mineral

Density functional theory and generalized gradient approximation have been employed to study Mg, Si and O vacancies in the Mg2SiO4 forsterite mineral. Microstructure of defect equilibrium geometries, electronic properties as well as chemical bonding in the region surrounding each one of the vacancie...
