Abstract
⺠We introduce a new approach to compute directly the electric current in Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics. ⺠The method is quite efficient since it does not require computing Born effective charges. ⺠The method is free from the indeterminacy inherent in the macroscopic polarization of crystals. ⺠Numerical tests show excellent agreement between the new approach and existing methods.
