具有立方对称性的纳米颗粒:多面体形状的分类

Nanoparticles with Cubic Symmetry: Classification of Polyhedral Shapes

Klaus E. Hermann

AI总结:

该研究以立方点对称Oh紧致多面体为模型,基于{100}{110}{111}刻面方向族,提出由三个刻面距离参数决定多面体结构的相图分类法,可用于纳米颗粒模拟与实验结构解析。

摘要:

晶体纳米颗粒(NP)的形状通常可以用具有平坦刻面表面的多面体来描述。因此,对多面体的结构研究有助于描述纳米颗粒的几何细节。本文将具有立方点对称性Oh的紧致多面体作为简单模型进行研究。其表面由法向量沿选定方向(a, b, c)的刻面,以及构成方向族{abc}的对称等价刻面共同描述。对于给定的{abc},可得到最多含48个刻面的通用多面体,本文重点研究刻面方向族为{abc} = {100}、{110}和{111}的多面体,这类多面体被提出用于描述具有立方晶格的金属纳米颗粒。由此得到的通用多面体(立方体、菱面体和八面体),可通过对应通用类型的交集来描述非通用多面体。研究表明,它们的结构性质完全由三个结构参数决定,即三类刻面的刻面距离R100、R110和R111。由此得到的相图可对相应的Oh对称多面体进行完整分类。本文通过解析与数值方式详细讨论了所有多面体的结构性质(如形状、尺寸和刻面几何特征),并对典型示例进行了可视化展示。这些结果可用于相关的纳米颗粒模拟,也可作为辅助解释实验中观测到的真实紧致纳米颗粒结构的参考库。

英文摘要:

The shape of crystalline nanoparticles (NP) can often be described by polyhedra with flat facet surfaces. Thus, structural studies of polyhedral bodies can help to describe geometric details of NPs. Here we consider compact polyhedra of cubic point symmetry Oh.as simple models. Their surfaces are described by facets with normal vectors along selected directions (a, b, c) together with their symmetry equivalents forming a direction family {abc}. For given {abc} this yields generic polyhedra with up to 48 facets where we focus on polyhedra with facets of {abc} = {100}, {110}, and {111}, suggested for metal NPs with cubic lattices. The resulting generic polyhedra, cubic, rhombohedral, and octahedral, can serve for the description of non-generic polyhedra as intersections of corresponding generic species. Their structural properties are shown to be fully determined by only three structure parameters, facet distances R100, R110, and R111 of three types of facets. This provides a phase diagram to completely classify the corresponding Oh symmetry polyhedra. Structural properties of all polyhedra, such as shape, size, and facet geometries, are discussed in analytical and numerical detail with visualization of characteristic examples. The results may be used for respective nanoparticle simulations but also as a repository assisting the interpretation of structures of real compact nanoparticles observed by experiment.
