Gibbs free energies of Fe clusters can be approximated by Tolman correction to accurately model cluster nucleation and growth

Alexander Khrabry, Louis E. S. Hoffenberg, Igor D. Kaganovich +2

Accurate Gibbs free energies of Fe clusters are required for predictive modeling of Fe cluster growth during condensation of a cooling vapor. We present a straightforward method of…
