14. Calculations were performed using the VASP 4.6 package [G. Kresse and J. Hafner, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 47, 558 (1993); 10.1103/PhysRevB.47.558

17. PAW potentials were taken from the PBE functional [J.P. Perdew, K. Burke, and M. Ernzerhof, Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 3865 (1996)] PRLTAO 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett.77.3865 pseudopotential library provided with the code.
18. Convergence of the total energy with respect to the cutoff energies was examined. Plane wave and charge density cutoffs of 600 and 800 eV, respectively, were sufficiently high and were used in the calculations of the static structures. A 4 × 4 × 4 k point set was used.

21. The system was first scaled to 300 K in 0.5 ps. This is followed by equilibration for 1 ps. Then a molecular dynamics trajectory of 5 ps using Nosé thermostat [S. Nosé, J. Chem. Phys. 81, 511 (1984); JCPSA6 0021-9606 10.1063/1.447334

23. Time step was set to 1 fs. Plane wave and charge density cutoff energies were set to 250 and 400 eV, respectively. A 4 × 4 × 4 k point set was used.
