Structural and Energetic Analysis of Copper Clusters : MD Study of Cun ( n = 2 - 45 )
نویسنده
چکیده
Simulações usando a dinâmica molecular foram efetuadas, considerando-se um potencial empírico para investigar geometrias, padrões de crescimentos, estabilidades de estruturas e energias para clusters de Cu n (n = 2-45). Os clusters estáveis otimizados foram calculados pelo rearranjo via processo de colisão. O presente procedimento apresenta-se como uma alternativa eficiente para a identificação do crescimento de clusters e como uma técnica de otimização. Foi verificado que os clusters de cobre preferem formar estruturas compactas tridimensionais em determinadas configurações enquanto os sistemas de tamanho médio apresentam simetria esférica. Além disso, também foram observadas correlações entre os arranjos atômicos e os números mágicos dos clusters. Particularmente, verificou-se que Cu 26 tem uma estabilidade equivalente ao sistema Cu 13 .

The structural, electronic and magnetic properties of Cun+1 and CunV (n = 1-12) clusters have been investigated by using density functional theory. The growth behaviors reveal that V atom in low-energy CunV isomer favors the most highly coordinated position and changes the geometry of the three-dimensional host clusters. The vibrational spectra are predicted and can be used to identify the grou...
