Abstract

The influence of the rate of change in temperature and size of nickel nanoparticles on the features of the nanocrystalline structure formed during crystallization and devitrification was studied by the method of molecular dynamicsThis work is devoted to the study of factors affecting the characteristics of the nanocrystalline structure formed during the rapid cooling of nickel nanoparticles from the melt and during devitrification as a result of heating from low temperatures of particles with an amorphous structure using the method of molecular dynamics. The influence of the temperature change rate from 5 ∙1011 to 1013 K / s and the particle diameter from 1.5 to 11 nm on the features of the resulting structure, the amount of stored energy, the temperature of the onset of crystallization and devitrification was considered. It is shown that with an increase in the cooling rate in the case of the simulation of crystallization and the heating rate in the simulation of devitrification, the density of defects and the amount of stored energy in the final structure of nanoparticles increase. The temperature of the onset of crystallization and devitrification also depended on the rate of temperature change: the lower the rate, the higher the crystallization temperature and the lower the devitrification temperature. As the particle diameter decreases, the crystallization temperature decreases, while the devitrification temperature, on the contrary, increases.
