Exploring grain boundary energy landscapes with the activation-relaxation technique

To develop a structure-kinetic property mapping for grain boundaries requires an understanding of their energy landscapes, i.e. the energy basins and nearby saddle points separating adjacent structures. We implement the activation-relaxation technique to obtain a first view of grain boundary energy...
