摘要: 二氧化铈纳米粒子(CeO2)n(n=1~5)材料为固态氧化燃料电池中的催化剂,因此了解其不同尺寸结构的性质是非常重要的. 在本论文中使用分子动力学 (molecular dynamics) 模拟结合火焰算法(FIRE algorithm) 计算得到二氧化铈的最小能量结构. 再应用密度泛函理论方法 (density functional theory)对这些结构进一步计算,得到更精确的最低能量结构.

Abstract: The FIRE algorithm combined with the simulated annealing method w as firstly employed to find the structures of (CeO2)n (n=1-5) with g lobal minimum potential energy. These structures were further refined by the density functional theory simulation in order to deeply understand their structu ral properties.
