中等大小经典Lennard-Jones团簇heat capacities的幻数行为

Magic number behavior for heat capacities of medium sized classical Lennard-Jones clusters

D. D. Frantz

摘要:

用Monte Carlo方法计算了聚集体大小为$25 \leq N \leq 60$的经典原子团簇的热容随温度的变化关系。采用平行回火法克服了固液相变区的准遍历性带来的收敛困难。所有研究的团簇在其热容曲线上都有明显的峰,其中大部分对应于其固-液相变区。热容峰高和峰位随团簇尺寸的变化呈现两种趋势:对于$N = 25$至36,峰温缓慢升高,峰高缓慢降低,直至$N = 37$消失;对于$N = 30$,在极低温度下出现一个非常小的次峰,随着$N$的增加,次峰的尺寸和温度迅速增大,直至$N = 36$成为主峰。叠加在这些一般趋势上的是对应于“幻数”行为的峰高的较小波动,在$N = 36, 39, 43, 46$和49处发现局部最大值,在$N = 55$处发现最大峰。这些幻数是其他星系团性质幻数的一个子集,并且可以在很大程度上理解星系团的基本几何结构。这些集群的熔融行为的进一步见解,从淬火研究和检查均方根键长波动。

英文摘要:

Monte Carlo methods were used to calculate heat capacities as functions of temperature for classical atomic clusters of aggregate sizes $25 \leq N \leq 60$ that were bound by pairwise Lennard-Jones potentials. The parallel tempering method was used to overcome convergence difficulties due to quasiergodicity in the solid-liquid phase-change regions. All of the clusters studied had pronounced peaks in their heat capacity curves, most of which corresponded to their solid-liquid phase-change regions. The heat capacity peak height and location exhibited two general trends as functions of cluster size: for $N = 25$ to 36, the peak temperature slowly increased, while the peak height slowly decreased, disappearing by $N = 37$; for $N = 30$, a very small secondary peak at very low temperature emerged and quickly increased in size and temperature as $N$ increased, becoming the dominant peak by $N = 36$. Superimposed on these general trends were smaller fluctuations in the peak heights that corresponded to ``magic number'' behavior, with local maxima found at $N = 36, 39, 43, 46$ and 49, and the largest peak found at $N = 55$. These magic numbers were a subset of the magic numbers found for other cluster properties, and can be largely understood in terms of the clusters' underlying geometries. Further insights into the melting behavior of these clusters were obtained from quench studies and by examining rms bond length fluctuations.
