This work investigates the scattering of hydrogen atoms from a germanium surface, a process characterized by non-adiabatic energy dissipation due to electronic excitations that cannot be described within the Born–Oppenheimer approximation. To get insight into this phenomenon, diabatic potential energy surfaces were constructed using constrained density functional theory (cDFT), complemented by Bader charge analysis.

Abstract
This work investigates the scattering of hydrogen atoms from a germanium surface, a process characterized by non-adiabatic energy dissipation due to electronic excitations that cannot be described within the Born–Oppenheimer approximation. To get insight into this phenomenon, diabatic potential energy surfaces were constructed using constrained density functional theory (cDFT), complemented by Bader charge analysis.File in questo prodotto:
