摘要
We report an analysis of the melting behaviour of small silicon clusters interacting via a nonlinear interatomic potential with four-body terms. The analysis shows, by means of Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations, that the small silicon clusters undergo, in a vacuum, structural changes from a solid rigid state to a liquid-like state. The melting temperature exhibits a strong variation with cluster size.
