Topological effects in magnetic platinum nano-particles
Cono Di Paola, Roberto D'Agosta, Francesca Baletto
The magnetic properties of platinum nano-particles ranging in size from a few to up 300 atoms are investigated through first-principle calculations. It is found that the total magn…
Metallic nanoparticles meet Metadynamics
Luca Pavan, Kevin Rossi, Francesca Baletto
We show how standard Metadynamics coupled with classical Molecular Dynamics can be successfully ap- plied to sample the configurational and free energy space of metallic and bimeta…
Structural stability and uniformity of magnetic Pt13 nanoparticles in NaY zeolite
Luca Pavan, Cono Di Paola, Francesca Baletto
Based on first-principles simulations, the structural stability and magnetic uniformity of Pt13 nanoparticles encapsulated in a NaY zeolite were investigated. Among 50 stable isome…
