MedeA® Amorphous Materials Builder

The MedeA® Amorphous Builder lets you efficiently create condensed phase models based on system composition and target density. In allowing you to focus on science, the MedeA® Amorphous Materials Builder eliminates the need for lengthy mixing and amorphization simulations, which for many polymeric and glassy systems can never sample all degrees of freedom due to the timescale of polymer backbone motion.

MedeA Amorphous Materials Builder

Create Statistically Realistic Configurations for:

  • Bulk polymers
  • Polymer blends
  • Polymer solutions
  • Electrolyte systems
  • Small molecule liquids
  • Liquid mixtures
  • Melts of mixed oxide inorganic glasses
  • Coming Soon: Nematic liquid crystal phases

Key Benefits of MedeA® Amorphous Builder:

  • Works well for:
    • Individual and multiple polymer chains
      (easily created with the MedeA® PolymerBuilder)
    • Organic molecules such as solvents, additives and plasticizers
    • Inorganic material fragments
  • Generate system configurations based on realistic sampling of the translational, rotational, and the conformational degrees of freedom of component species (subject to the constraint that the final model possesses complete translational periodic symmetry)
  • Use output structures as the starting point for a range of condensed phase property evaluations for both polymer and small molecule organic systems
