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