To fully understand atom-surface interactions, the availability of an accurate full-dimensional potential energy surface (PES) is crucial. High-dimensional neural network potentials have been shown to provide very accurate PESs for a wide range of systems. We developed a neural network potential for H-atom at a graphene sheet by fitting to density functional theory data calculated on-the-fly in ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. Based on this potential, we studied the scattering under various incidence conditions (like angle, kinetic energy, temperature) and compared the results to experimental data.
