Molecular Structures, Dipole Moments, and Electronic Properties of β‑HMX under External Electric Field from First-Principles Calculations by Yu-Shi Liu (6647582)

“…When the external electric field is increasing along the [100], [010], and [001] crystallographic directions of β-HMX, the calculation results indicate that an increase in the bond length (N1–N3/N1′–N3′) of the triggering bond, an increase in the main <i>Q</i>_nitro (N3, N3′) value, an increase in the minimum surface electrostatic potential, and a decrease in band gap all contribute to a reduction in its stability. …”
