摘要
The composition-dependent icosahedral (ICO) structures of PtnNi55-n bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) are explored to investigate the structural, electronic and magnetic properties using density functional theory. The excess energy of the structure with Pt/Ni approximate to 1:1 (Pt28Ni27 NP) is the lowest among the study system. It is noticed that the structures with the greater number of Pt-Ni bonds are more energetically stable on account of the fact that the interaction of Pt-Ni bond is stronger than that of Ni-Ni and Pt-Pt bonds. In addition, the density of states of d-band for Ni and Pt in PtnNi55-n NPs reveals that the Ni d-band has a more remarkable effect on Pt d-band than that of Pt d-band on Ni d-band. Furthermore, the magnetic moments of PtnNi55-n NPs clarify the superior magnetic property. The magnetic moment of Pt54Ni1 NP is larger than that of Pt-55 when one Ni atom occupies center, while when the Ni atom occupies surface sites, the magnetic moment of Pt54Ni1 is much lower than that of Pt-55. For Pt1Ni54 NP, the magnetism is enhanced comparing with Ni-55 when one Pt atom occupies edge site. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
