Adaptive kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of surface segregation in PdAu nanoparticles
Keyword(s):
Surface segregation in bimetallic nanoparticles is critically important for their catalytic activity. Here, we use the adaptive kinetic Monte Carlo method to model the segregation dynamics in PdAu NPs over experimentally relevant time scales and demonstrate thermodynamically unfavorable Au@Pd core–shell and alloy NPs can be kinetically trapped at low temperature.
