With the advances in miniaturization, understanding and controlling properties of significant technological systems like silicon in nano regime assumes considerable importance. It…
First principle investigation of the structural and electronic properties of the gallium clusters and their influence on the melting characteristics
Sailaja Krishnamurty, Kavita Joshi, Shahab Zorriasatein +1
First principle calculations have been performed to understand the experimentally observed size sensitive variations in the characteristics of heat capacities of gallium clusters […
Magic Melters' Have Geometrical Origin
Kavita Joshi, Sailaja Krishnamurty, D. G. Kanhere
Recent experimental reports bring out extreme size sensitivity in the heat capacities of Gallium and Aluminum clusters. In the present work we report results of our extensive {\it…
Finite Temperature Behavior of Small Silicon and Tin Clusters: An Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Study
Sailaja Krishnamurty, Kavita Joshi, D. G. Kanhere +1
The finite temperature behavior of small Silicon (Si, Si, and Si) and Tin (Sn and Sn) clusters is studied using isokinetic Born-Oppenheimer molec…
Why do gallium clusters have a higher melting point than the bulk?
S. Chacko, Kavita Joshi, D. G. Kanhere +1
Density functional molecular dynamical simulations have been performed on Ga and Ga clusters to understand the recently observed higher-than-bulk melting temperatures…
Finite temperature behavior of impurity doped Lithium cluster {\em viz} LiSn
Kavita Joshi, D. G. Kanhere
We have carried out extensive isokinetic {\it ab initio} molecular dynamic simulations to investigate the finite temperature properties of the impurity doped cluster LiSn along…
