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…

Solid-liquid phase coexistence and structural transitions in palladium clusters
D. Schebarchov, S. C. Hendy
We use molecular dynamics with an embedded atom potential to study the behavior of palladium nanoclusters near the melting point in the microcanonical ensemble. We see transitions…
