Abstract
We study the vibrational and electronic properties of (x)Na2S-(1-x)GeS2 glasses through DFT-based molecular dynamics simulations, at different sodium concentrations (0<x<0.5). We compute the vibrational density of states for the different samples in order to determine the contribution of the Na+ ions in the VDOS. With an in-depth analysis of the eigenvectors we determine the spatial and atomic localization of the different modes, and in particular in the zone corresponding to the Boson peak. We also calculate the electronic density of states as well as the partial EDOS in order to determine the impact of the introduction of the sodium modifiers on the electronic properties of the GeS2 matrix.
