Underlying mechanisms of gold nanoalloys stabilization

Lucas B. Pena,

Abstract: Gold nanoclusters have attracted significant attention due to their unique physical-chemical properties, which can be tuned by alloying with elements such as Cu, Pd, Ag, and Pt to design materials for various applications. Although Au-nanoalloys have promising applications, our atomistic understanding of the descriptors that drive their stability is far from satisfactory. To address this problem, we considered 55-atom model nanoalloys that have been synthesized by experimental techniques. Here, we combined dat… Show more

“…A more in-depth description of the protocol, together with a flow diagram of its procedures, is provided in the ESI † and in the original work. 53 The number of structures selected for the DFT calculations (x) depends on the size of the cluster, and were chosen as x = 30, 40 and 50 for the cluster sizes of n = 13, 27 and 41, respectively. Given that this procedure is repeated for each of the seven compositions selected for each size of the cluster, the number of DFT optimizations only in the screening part is 840.…”
