Abstract
The equation of state (P) as well as the baric dependences of the elastic modulus, thermal expansion coefficient, and melting temperature for rhodium (Rh) macrocrystal have been calculated by an analytical method using the paired Mie–Lennard-Jones interatomic interaction potential. The results showed good agreement with the data known from the literature. Using the same method, the change in the baric dependences of the melting temperature (Tm) and its pressure derivative (Tm′(P) = dTm/dP) during the transition from a macrocrystal to a nanocrystal of 306 Rh atoms was studied for the first time. It is shown that at all pressures the Tm(P, N) function decreases with an isomorphic-isobaric decrease in the number of atoms N. It is shown that the Tm′(P) value for a nanocrystal of 306 Rh atoms is larger at low pressures and smaller at P > 12.74 GPa than the Tm′(P) value for a macrocrystal.
期刊介绍:
Solid State Communications is an international medium for the publication of short communications and original research articles on significant developments in condensed matter science, giving scientists immediate access to important, recently completed work. The journal publishes original experimental and theoretical research on the physical and chemical properties of solids and other condensed systems and also on their preparation. The submission of manuscripts reporting research on the basic physics of materials science and devices, as well as of state-of-the-art microstructures and nanostructures, is encouraged.
A coherent quantitative treatment emphasizing new physics is expected rather than a simple accumulation of experimental data. Consistent with these aims, the short communications should be kept concise and short, usually not longer than six printed pages. The number of figures and tables should also be kept to a minimum. Solid State Communications now also welcomes original research articles without length restrictions.
The Fast-Track section of Solid State Communications is the venue for very rapid publication of short communications on significant developments in condensed matter science. The goal is to offer the broad condensed matter community quick and immediate access to publish recently completed papers in research areas that are rapidly evolving and in which there are developments with great potential impact.
