Extraction of aluminium surface energies from slab calculations: perturbative and non-perturbative approaches

Surface energies of aluminium ((1 1 1), (1 1 0) and (1 0 0)) were calculated in second-order perturbation theory based on the jellium model, and by full atomistic models using a Gaussian basis set, in the framework of density functional theory. In both cases, surface energies were extracted from sla...
