Thermal instability of decahedral structures in platinum nanoparticles
D. Schebarchov, S. C. Hendy
We conduct molecular dynamics simulations of 887 and 1389-atom decahedral platinum nanoparticles using an embedded atom potential. By constructing microcanonical caloric curves, we…

Superheating and solid-liquid phase coexistence in nanoparticles with non-melting surfaces
D. Schebarchov, S. C. Hendy
We present a phenomenological model of melting in nanoparticles with facets that are only partially wet by their liquid phase. We show that in this model, as the solid nanoparticle…

Transition from Icosahedral to Decahedral Structure in a Coexisting Solid-Liquid Nickel Cluster
D. Schebarchov, S. C. Hendy
We have used molecular dynamics simulations to construct a microcanonical caloric curve for a 1415-atom Ni icosahedron. Prior to melting the Ni cluster exhibits static solid-liquid…
