Abstract
Phase Transition of ZnO; a Computational work
Zinc Oxide is always a promised semiconductor in industry and nanotechnology. In this work we use the technique od Molecular Dynamics and DL_POLY_4 software to analyse the behaviour of the Enthalpy of ZnO under Isobaric and Isothermal ensembles. Our sample is composed from 5816 atoms of Zinc Oxide (2916 atoms of Zn+2 and 2916 atoms of O-2 ); the calculations ran on RAVEN supercomputer of Cardiff University. Th range of pressure is 0 -200GPA and the range of temperature is 300K – 3000K. We analysed the Enthalpy versus pressure and temperature under previous conditions to find the phase transition compared with the available works. This work is very important in nanoscale field for applying these materials in industry, Electronics, Pharmaceutics, and in Medicine
