Abstract

The results of molecular dynamics simulation of the process of atom-by-atom growth of palladium nanoparticles are presented. The structures obtained for the Pdn clusters agree well with the results of the first-principles calculations. The low-symmetry atomic configurations for the structure of the Pd4 and Pd13 clusters have been obtained using the semiempirical potentials of the interatomic interaction for the first time.
