A study of diffusion, atom migration and segregation in Cu and Ag alloy bulk- and nanocrystals
Using the Sutton-Chen potential, Molecular Dynamics simulations were done of Ag and Cu bulk and nanocrystals and the vacancy formation energy, migration energy, and diffusion activation energy were calculated. Values for Cu compared very well with literature, and Ag less so. The migration energy alo...
