Description

We present a systematical method for obtaining analytical long-range embedded-atom potentials based on the lattice-inversion method. The potentials converge faster (exponentially) than Sutton and Chen's power-law potentials (Philos. Mag. Lett. 61, 2480(1990)). An interesting relationship between the embedded-atom method and the universal binding energy equation of Rose et al. (Phys. Rev. B 29, 2963 (1984)) is also pointed out. The potentials are tested by calculating the elastic constants, phonon dispersions, phase stabilities, surface properties and melting temperatures of the fcc transition metals.
