A Study of the Radius Dependence of Thermodynamic Parameters for Metal Nanospheres
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract A method based on molecular dynamics and embedded atom potential is proposed for estimating the Laplace pressure, thermal expansion coefficient, and surface tension coefficient in spherical nanoobjects in relation to their size and temperature. The method is applied to silver nanospheres of radius 2–8 nm for analyzing their size and temperature effect on the thermodynamic parameters.
