Modelling phosphate-based glasses for biomedical applications

In this thesis, we present the application of theoretical methodologies to model several compositions of phosphate-based glasses (PBGs) for biomedicine. Quantum mechanical calculations of single crystal phosphorus pentoxide, P2O5, have been conducted using plane wave density functional theory. A rig...
