Low-energy recoil events in MgO are studied usingab intiomolecular dynamics simulations to reveal the dynamic displacement processes and final defect configurations. Threshold displacement energies,Ed, are obtained for Mg and O along three low-index crystallographic directions, [100], [110], and [111]. The minimum values forEdare found along the [110] direction consisting of the same element, either Mg or O atoms. Minimum threshold values of 29.5 eV for Mg and 25.5 eV for O, respectively, are suggested from the calculations. For other directions, the threshold energies are considerably higher, 65.5 and 150.0 eV for O along [111] and [100], and 122.5 eV for Mg along both [111] and [100] directions, respectively. These results show that the recoil events in MgO are partial-charge transfer assisted processes where the charge transfer plays an important role. There is a similar trend found in other oxide materials, where the threshold displacement energy correlates linearly with the peak partial-charge transfer, suggesting this behavior might be universal in ceramic oxides.
