Charge transfer , surface charging , and overlayer - induced faceting
Local density functional calculations are used to analyze the change of surface energy of metallic surfaces upon surface charging. We then studied the systems involving overlayers of fcc metals on Mo~111! and Mo~211!. It has been observed experimentally that some fcc overlayers can drive Mo~111! and W~111! surfaces to facet to the $211% orientation, and there is a strong correlation between the...
متن کاملHydrogen adsorption energies on bimetallic overlayer systems at the solid-vacuum and the solid-liquid interface
Atomic hydrogen adsorption energies on bimetallic overlayer systems have been determined by periodic density functional theory calculations within the generalized gradient approximation. On the pseudomorphic Pd/Cu(111) surface, both the substrate interaction and the lattice compression of the Pd overlayer lead to smaller hydrogen binding energies. For pseudomorphic Cu/Pd(111), on the hand, the ...
متن کاملPolydispersity induced solid–solid transitions in model colloids
Specialized Monte Carlo simulation techniques and moment free energy method calculations, capable of treating fractionation exactly, are deployed to study the crystalline phase behaviour of an assembly of spherical particles described by a top-hat ‘‘parent’’ distribution of particle sizes. An increase in either the overall density or the degree of polydispersity is shown to generate a successio...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Scaling Limit of Continuum Solid-on-solid Model
A fourth-order nonlinear evolution equation is derived from a microscopic model for surface diffusion, namely, the continuum solid-on-solid model. We use the method developed by Varadhan for the computation of the hydrodynamic scaling limit of nongradient models. What distinguishes our model from other models discussed so far is the presence of two conservation laws for the dynamics in a nonper...
متن کاملCluster algorithm for a solid-on-solid model with constraints.
We adapt the VMR (valleys-to-mountains reflections) algorithm, originally devised by us for simulations of SOS models, to the BCSOS model. It is the first time that a cluster algorithm is used for a model with constraints. The performance of this new algorithm is studied in detail in both phases of the model, including a finite size scaling analysis of the autocorrelations. PACS numbers: 68.35....
