Abstract

Ab initio simulations play an increasingly relevant role in the study of layered materials. Here we give an overview of the capabilities of modeling tools as applied to the characterization of simple layered hydroxides (e.g. alkali metal and aluminum hydroxides) and clays (e.g. kaolinite and lizardite). In particular, applications of the CRYSTAL code, in the study of such systems, are discussed.
