Free Energy Approach to the Formation of an Icosahedral Structure during the Freezing of Gold Nanoclusters
H. -S. Nam, Nong M. Hwang, B. D. Yu +2
The freezing of metal nanoclusters such as gold, silver, and copper exhibits a novel structural evolution. The formation of the icosahedral (Ih) structure is dominant despite its e…

Formation of an Icosahedral Structure during the Freezing of Gold Nanoclusters: Surface-Induced Mechanism
H. -S. Nam, Nong M. Hwang, B. D. Yu +1
The freezing behavior of gold nanoclusters was studied by employing molecular dynamics simulations based on a semi-empirical embedded-atom method. Investigations of the gold nanocl…
