Abstract

13 Atomlu Cu-Au-Pt Üçlü Metal Nanoalaşımların Yapısal Özellikleri

Abstract

Bu
çalışmada, 13 atomlu Cu-Au-Pt üçlü metal nanoalaşımların yapısal özellikleri, üç
farklı kompozisyon sistemi ele alınarak incelenmiştir. Cu₁Au_nPt_12-n,
Au₁Cu_nPt_12-n ve Pt₁Cu_nAu_12-n
üçlü metal kompozisyonların en kararlı yapıları Basin-Hopping algoritması
kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Tüm kompozisyonlarda ikosahedral yapı
gözlenmiştir. Bu ikosahedral yapıların merkezini Cu ve Au atomuna göre daha
yüksek yüzey ve bağlanma enerjisi olan Pt atomu oluşturmuştur.
