Energy loss and surface temperature effects in ab initio molecular dynamics simulations: N adsorption on Ag(111) as a case study

We study surface temperature effects on the adsorption and relaxation of N atoms on Ag(111). To this aim, we perform ab initio molecular dynamics simulations with electronic friction, in which the surface is coupled to a thermostat that fixes the desired surface temperature. Simulations performed at 80 and 700 K show that the surface temperature has minor effects on magnitudes such as the initial adsorption probability, the relaxation rate of the adsorbing N, and the energy lost in electronic excitations. Slight differences are identified in the adsorption paths with the appearance of subsurface absorption events at 700 K that are not observed at 80 K. Furthermore, we perform additional simulations without a thermostat in order to examine the validity of commonly used ab initio molecular dynamics simulations in which no heat dissipation from the simulation cell is allowed. Our results show that such a methodology may not suffice to simulate the low-temperature regime since the surface becomes unphysically heated within a few picoseconds upon adsorption of the N atom. However, neither in this unfavorable case are the magnitudes defining the dynamics of the adsorbates at the same time scale significantly modified from those obtained at constant surface temperature.
