SnAg nanoparticles (SnAg NPs) were prepared by wet synthesis. The chemical composition of the SnAg NPs was obtained by inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry. The prepared fine powder samples were characterized by electron microscopic technique (SEM) and thermal analysis (DSC). The nanoparticles with different size were obtained. The size dependent melting point depression (MPD) of the SnAg NPs was determined experimentally. The size dependent phase diagram of the SnAg alloy was also calculated using CALPHAD method, which has been extended to describe the surface energy of SnAg nanoparticles. The same approach was used for SnAg eutectic MPD calculations. The own experimental and theoretical results were compared with the data of the other authors. The satisfactory agreement was found.

In this study, size-dependent bond length of metallic clusters is established by introducing bond number. This model, free of any adjustable parameters, can be utilized to predict the change rule of bond length with size. If the atomic structure of a cluster is known, the size and shape-dependent bond number are obtained. The cubooctahedral structure is taken for simplicity to describe the shape and geometric characteristics of metallic clusters. It is found that the bond length decreases with the decreased size of metallic clusters, which is due to the structure relaxation and enhanced single bond energy. The theoretical predictions are consistent with the evidences of the simulations for Au and Ag clusters. This confirms the validity of taking cubooctahedron structure, even if the simulated Au and Ag clusters are not cuboctahedron ones. This can be expected to other metallic clusters even with other atomic structures.

The melting point depression as a function of size has not been determined experimentally (orange line) for nickel before. This figure shows our results compared with molecular dynamic (blue) and thermodynamic (black, red, green) models.

A simple model for the size-dependent amplitude of the atomic thermal vibrations of a nanocrystal is presented which leads to the development of a model for the size dependent melting temperature in nanocrystals on the basis of Lindemann's criterion. The two models are in terms of a directly measurable parameter for the corresponding bulk crystal, i.e., the ratio between the amplitude of thermal vibrations for surface atoms and that for interior ones. It is shown that the present model for the melting temperature offers not only a qualitative but even an excellent quantitative agreement with the experimentally observed size-dependent superheating, as well as melting point suppression in both the supported and embedded metallic and semiconductor nanocrystals.
