Transition metal clusters on graphite

Duffy, D., Blackman, J. A., Mulheran, P. and Williams, S. A. (1998) Transition metal clusters on graphite. Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, 177-181 (2). pp. 953-954. ISSN 0304-8853 doi: 10.1016/S0304-8853(97)00757-9

Abstract/Summary

The topic of this work is 3d transition metals deposited on graphite. Spin-polarised density-functional calculations are used to obtain the magnetic moments of deposited adatoms and dimers. Interatomic potentials are also deduced. These are used in molecular dynamics simulations to study cluster formation and to investigate cluster morphology.
