Abstract:In this study, the stability of yolk–shell and
hollow Ni@PdAu
and PdAu@Ni nanoparticles in free state and supported on boron nitride
and graphene substrates was investigated at 300 K using molecular
dynamics simulations. To this end, analyses of several parameters
such as relative stability, surface energy, coordination number, number
of surface atoms, bond length, displacement vector, and atomic strain
were employed. Results show that the yolk–shell and hollow
Ni@PdAu nanoparticles are more stable than yolk–s… Show more
