Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Phase Changes in Icosahedral 54-, 55-, 56-Atom Platinum Clusters(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2004) Güvenç, ZB; Kökten, H; Sebetci, AUsing the Voter and Chen version of an embedded-atom model, derived by fitting simultaneously to experimental data both the diatomic molecule and bulk platinum, we have studied the melting behavior of free, icosahedral, 54-, 55- and 56-atom platinum clusters in the molecular dynamics simulation technique. We present an atom-resolved analysis method that includes physical quantities such as the root-mean-square bond-length fluctuation and coordination number for individual atoms as functions of temperature. The effect of a central atom in the icosahedral structure to the melting process is discussed. The results show that the global minimum structures of the 54-, 55- and 56-atom Pt clusters do not melt at a specific temperature, rather, melting processes take place over a finite temperature range. The heat capacity peaks are not delta-functions, but instead remain finite. An ensemble of clusters in the melting region is a mixture of solid-like and liquid-like clusters.Article Citation - WoS: 58Citation - Scopus: 66Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Sintering and Surface Premelting of Silver Nanoparticles(Japan inst Metals & Materials, 2013) Ozdogan, C.; Hu, A.; Yavuz, M.; Zhou, Y.; Atis, M.; Alarifi, H. A.Sintering of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) is increasingly being used as a driving mechanism for joining in the microelectronics industry. We therefore performed molecular dynamics simulations based on the embedded atom method (EAM) to study pressureless sintering kinetics of two Ag NPs in the size range of (4 to 20 nm), and sintering of three and four Ag NPs of 4 nm diameter. We found that the sintering process passed through three main stages. The first was the neck formation followed by a rapid increase of the neck radius at 50K for 20 nm particles and at 10 K for smaller NPs. The second was characterized by a gradual linear increase of the neck radius to particle radius ratio as the temperature of the sintered structure was increased to the surface premelting point. Different than previous sintering studies, a twin boundary was formed during the second stage that relaxed the sintered structure and decreased the average potential energy (PE). The third stage of sintering was a rapid shrinkage during surface premelting of the sintered structure. Based on pore geometry, densification occurred during the first stage for three 4 nm particles and during the second stage for four 4 nm particles. Sintering rates obtained by our simulation were higher than those obtained by theoretical models generally used for predicting sintering rates of microparticles.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Structure and Dynamical Properties of Aun, N=12-14 Clusters: Molecular Dynamics Simulation(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2005) Yildirim, EK; Atis, M; Güvenç, ZBUsing molecular dynamics and thermal quenching methods on the basis of Voter-Chen version of the embedded-atom method, we have studied the melting behavior of Au-N (N = 12, 13, 14) clusters. This behavior is described in terms of overall and atom resolved root-mean-square bond-length fluctuations, specific-heat, short- and long-time average coordination numbers of each atom and short-time average temperatures of the clusters. The isomer sampling probabilities are obtained from the thermal quenching of the molten clusters, and their energy-spectrum widths are investigated. Phase change of a cluster takes place with the collective and simultaneous motion of all the atoms.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Parallelization of a Molecular Dynamics Simulation of an Ion-Surface Collision(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2005) Özdogan, C; Güvenç, ZB; Atis, MParallel molecular dynamics simulation study of the ion-surface collision system is reported. A sequential molecular dynamics simulation program is converted into a parallel code utilizing the concept of parallel virtual machine (PVM). An effective and favorable algorithm is developed. Our parallelization of the algorithm shows that it is more efficient because of the optimal pair listing, linear scaling, and constant behavior of the internode communications. The code is tested in a distributed memory system consisting of a cluster of eight PCs that run under Linux (Debian 2.4.20 kernel). Our results on the collision system are discussed based on the speed up, efficiency and the system size. Furthermore, the code is used for a full simulation of the Ar-Ni(100) collision system and calculated physical quantities are presented.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 21Structure and Reactivity of Nin (n=7-14, 19) Clusters(Wiley, 2001) Böyükata, M; Güvenç, ZB; Özçelik, S; Durmus, P; Jellinek, JResults of a computer simulation study of Ni-n (n = 7-14, 19) clusters, their structures, energetics, and reactivity with a D-2 molecule are presented. The clusters are described by an embedded atom potential, whereas the interaction between the molecule and the clusters is modeled by an LEPS (London-Eyring-Polanyi-Sato) potential energy function. The focus is on structures of the dusters and their reactive channels. The total numbers of stable isomers of the clusters are obtained by sampling their phase space, and the isomers' energy spectra are determined. On the reactive side, dissociative chemisorptions cross sections and decay-rate constants are calculated.

The interaction between the D(2) and the atoms of the surface is modeled by a LEPS (London-Eyring-Polani-Sato) potential energy function. The molecule is aimed at three different impact sites (atop, bridge, and center) of a rigid Ni(100) surface along the normal direction with various collision energies less than or equal to1.0 eV. Dissociative chemisorption probabilities are computed for different rotational states of the molecule. Probability distributions of the final rovibrational states of the ground-state Dp molecule scattered from those impact sites are also computed as a function of the collision energy. Higher collision energy results in excitation of higher rotational and/or vibrational states of the scattered molecule. At collision energies below 0.1 eV an indirect dissociation mechanism (through molecular adsorption) dominates the reaction.

We present an atom-resolved analysis method that includes physical quantities such as the root-mean-square bond-length fluctuation and coordination number for individual atoms as functions of temperature. The results show that as the Pt-15-Pt-18 clusters exhibit multistage melting, melting in Pt-19 cluster takes place in a single but interesting stage. None of these melting stages occurs at a specific temperature, rather, melting processes take place over a finite temperature range. This range is larger for less symmetric clusters. An ensemble of clusters in the melting region is a mixture of different isomeric forms of the clusters. The multistage melting and the occurrence of a single melting stage over a temperature range are two different phenomena. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
