摘要
The process of formation of facets (faceting) in Ni, Al, and Au nanoparticles has been investigated by the molecular-dynamics method. It has been established that the surface of nanoparticles of fcc metals with attainment of a low-energy habit can be transformed via correlated displacements of atomic groups of the facet in the octahedral plane. It has been shown that such a process is similar to the surface diffusion of atomic n-mers with the activation energy depending on the facet size, and for particles with a diameter d < 3.0 nm the correlated displacement of atomic layers proves to be the dominant mechanism of faceting.
