Size-dependent melting point depression of nanostructures: Nanocalorimetric measurements
The melting behavior of 0.1–10-nm-thick discontinuous indium films formed by evaporation on amorphous silicon nitride is investigated by an ultrasensitive thin-film scanning calorimetry technique. The films consist of ensembles of nanostructures for which the size dependence of the melting temperature and latent heat of fusion are determined. The relationship between the nanostructure radius an...
متن کاملSize-dependent melting of Bi nanoparticles
Nanocalorimetry was used to investigate the melting of Bi nanoparticles. The particles were formed by evaporating Bi onto a silicon nitride substrate, which was then heated. The particles self-assemble into truncated spherical particles. Below 5-nm average film thickness, mean particle sizes increased linearly with deposition thickness but increased rapidly for 10-nm-thick films. As expected, s...
متن کاملValidity of Wulff construction used for size-dependent melting point of nanoparticles
An integrated model based on the variant of Ba/Bt, is established to predict size-dependent melting point of nanoparticles by considering the geometric and energetic characteristics of Wulff construction. Ba is the rest bond number and Bt denotes the total bond number without broken bonds in a Wulff construction. Without any adjustable parameters, this model predicts a decreasing trend of melti...
متن کاملMelting-point depression by insoluble impurities: a finite size effect.
Melting-point depression by soluble impurities is an entropy-driven phenomenon. Studying partially oxidized free sodium nanoparticles, we found an additional mechanism, which is caused by insoluble impurities. Oxidization of sodium clusters with 135-192 atoms by a single oxygen molecule causes a melting-point depression of 17+/-6 K; additional oxygen amplifies the effect. This is in contrast to...
متن کاملSize-dependent catalytic and melting properties of platinum-palladium nanoparticles
While nanocatalysis is a very active field, there have been very few studies in the size/shape-dependent catalytic properties of transition metals from a thermodynamical approach. Transition metal nanoparticles are very attractive due their high surface to volume ratio and their high surface energy. In particular, in this paper we focus on the Pt-Pd catalyst which is an important system in cata...
