'pySNOW': a Python Suite for the NanO-World

Sofia Zinzani, Gilberto Nardi, Giacomo Becatti +4

In computational materials science, numerical simulations are indispensable tools for revealing atomic-scale processes. For building blocks of the nanoworld, such as nanoparticles…

Ethanol chemisorption on core-shell Pt-nanoparticles: an ab-initio study

Vagner A. Rigo, Caetano R. Miranda, Francesca Baletto

By means of ab-initio calculations, we have investigated the chemisorption paroperties of ethanol onto segregating binary nanoalloys. We select nanostructures with icosahedral shap…

O adsorption trends on small supported PtNi clusters

Lauro Oliver Paz-Borbon, Francesca Baletto

We present a systematic analysis of molecular oxygen (O) adsorption trends on bimetallic PtNi clusters and their monometallic counterparts supported on MgO(100), by means of pe…
