Monte Carlo Simulations of Structure and Melting Transition of Small Ag Clusters

Creator:

Collins, Lee

Abstract:

The behavior of small atomics cluster largely depends on their geometry, due to the high ratio of surface atoms to interior atoms. One interesting aspect to study clusters centers around characterizing the transition behavior between nite and bulk materials, where the ratio of surface atoms to interior atoms is very...

Monte Carlo studies of classical Heisenberg spins on face-centered-cubic lattices : effects of strain, interlayer coupling, and dilution of lattice

Creator:

Park, Seongweon

Abstract:

This thesis presents the results from Monte Carlo calculations on classical vector spins in face-centered-cubic (FCC) lattices. The goal of the study was to understand the effect of interlayer coupling, dilution of magnetic atoms in the lattice, and symmetry-changing strain. Experimental work by T. M. Giebultowicz et al. and J....
