We address the question of the evolution of a nanostructured system in a metastable state to equilibrium. To this purpose, we use the case study of the transition of an AucorePdshell nanoalloy cluster containing up to about 600 atoms toward the equilibrium Au segregated configuration. We start from a molecular dynamics approach with an embedded atom potential. The way the transition develops at low temperatures is found to be very sensitive to the cluster morphology and the way energy is exchanged with the environment. The transition of icosahedral inverse core-shell Au-Pd clusters is predicted to nucleate locally at the surface contrary to clusters with other morphologies, and starting at lower temperatures compared to them.

By molecular dynamics simulation it is shown that interdiffusion in the initial f.c.c. Ag-core ( 28 at. %) – Ni-shell ( 72 at. %) and Ni-core ( 34 at. %) – Pd-shell ( 66 at. %) nanoparticles can lead to surface–sandwich segregation. It is observed that there is a separation of the initial Ag-Ni core-shell structure into Ag-core – Ni-intermediate shell – Ag-disperse surface monolayer. The initial crystal Ni-Pd core-shell structure transforms to the core of a non-crystalline Pd-rich solid solution with quite strongly developed icosahedral short-range order, which is covered by a surface–sandwich shell, where Ni atoms are located in the centres of interpenetrating icosahedra of a subsurface Kagomé net layer while the Pd atoms occupy the vertices of the icosahedra and cover this Ni layer from inside and outside. We demonstrate that under certain conditions a surface–sandwich segregation phenomenon at the nanoscale can be observed in systems with completely different phase diagrams in the bulk states: in systems displaying the extremely low mutual solubility as in the Ag-Ni system, or in systems exhibiting a continuous mutual solid solubility like the Pd-Ni system.
