Abstract:
The focus of this review is on the physical and magnetic properties that are related to the efficiency of monometallic magnetic nanoparticles used in biomedical applications, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia, and how to model these by theoretical methods, where the discussion is based on the example of cobalt nanoparticles. Different simulation systems (cluster, extended slab, and nanoparticle models) are critically appraised for their efficacy in the determination of reactivity, magnetic behaviour, and ligand-induced modifications of relevant prop

Abstract:
We use molecular dynamics to compute the free energy of carbon nanoparticles crossing a hydrophobic–hydrophilic interface. The simulations are performed on a biphasic system consisting of immiscible solvents (i.e., cyclohexane and water). We solvate a carbon nanoparticle into the cyclohexane layer and use a pull force to drive the nanoparticle into water, passing over the interface. Next, we accumulate a series of umbrella sampling simulations along the path of the nanoparticle and compute the solvation free energy with respect to the two solvents. We apply the method on three carbon nanoparti

In this study, a model based on bond number calculation in a system was developed to predict size-dependent evaporation temperature of nanoparticles.

According to the established model, the evaporation temperature of nanoparticles is dependent not only on their size, but also o

Abstract:
The present article examined the influence of size and periodicity of simulated gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in Nickel Oxide (NiO) matrix on localized plasmonic resonances (LSPRs). The scope of this work is to comparatively study the theoretical outcomes exhibited against the experimental results delivered from previous works, including a significant number of simulations and testing of numerous NPs diameter values. A comparison between Au and NiO NPs over silver (Ag) and NiO NPs is also reported to investigate whether the nature of noble metal affects its behavior in terms of LSPRs.

Abstract:
The work is devoted to the analysis of charge state of a disordered system of metallic nanoparticles positioned on a conductive substrate. A theoretical model has been developed that describes thermally activated electron tunnel transitions between the particles as well as between the particles and the substrate, the last ones being caused by the difference in particle and substrate work functions. The model accounts for the inter-particle charge interactions and for the interaction of the particle charges with the image charges in the substrate. By using Monte Carlo simulations charge distrib

Abstract:
Due to the disadvantages of traditional EOR methods, such as low sweep efficiency, formation damage and poor environmental protection, nanotechnology has attracted great attention in improving oil recovery due to its cost-effectiveness and environmental protection. Common types of nanoparticles that can play an effective role in enhancing oil recovery include oxides of aluminum, zinc, magnesium, iron, zirconium, nickel, tin and silicon. At home and abroad in this paper, the different types of nanomaterials research progress on the reservoir and production technology are introduced in detail, i

Abstract:
Physical properties of nanoparticles depend strongly on their structure, therefore an understanding of atomic structure relaxation at nanoscale is very important for properties tuning but is a challenging task. Upon crystallite size reduction below about 10 nm, the unit-cell volume expansion is observed in most nanooxides, opposite to metal nanoparticles. The detailed understanding of this phenomenon requires joint use of modern experimental and theoretical methods. In this study we will illustrate how the nanostructure problem can be addressed using classical molecular dynamics [1] and revers

Abstract:
Nanoparticles exhibit diverse self-assembly attributes and are expected to be applicable under unique settings. For instance, biomolecules can be sandwiched between dimer nanoparticles and detected by surface-enhanced Raman scattering. Controlling the gap between extremely close dimers and stably capturing the target molecule in the gap are crucial aspects of this strategy. Therefore, polymer-tethered nanoparticles (PTNPs), which show promise as high-performance materials that exhibit the attractive features of both NPs and polymers, were targeted in this study to achieve stable biomolecule se

Abstract:
Interdiffusion mechanism of catechin, catechutannic acid and quercetin are studied by using DFT-B method. But before conducting these experiment, we perform molecular dynamic simulations to find adsorption models probability of each compound. Two models adsorption of quarcetin, four models for catechin and three models for catechutannic acid have been obtained from molecular dynamic simulations. Quantum parameter of each compound, energy and properties adsorption models have been calculated and discussed. The theoretical results were found to be consistent with the experimental data reported.

Silicon anodes in lithium-ion batteries are a promising next-generation battery technology offering ten times higher theoretical capacity than commercial graphite anodes. However, substantial volume changes (around 300%) associated with silicon anodes pose a significant challenge to the cycle life of these batteries. To understand the effect of the interaction between lithiation (diffusion) and mechanics (volume expansion, stress generation) on cycle life, a theoretical chemo-mechanical model of an isolated deforming silicon anode nanospherical particle is proposed in this study.
