We investigated the effect of particle size in the melting of gold nanoparticles by employing Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation. The nanoparticle diameter was produced as 6 nm and 12 nm in FCC(100) configuration which consists of 8,586 atoms and 56,468 atoms, respectively. It was heated for 10 ps from 0 K to 1400 K which was already above melting point of bulk gold. Common Neighbor Analysis (CNA) combined with wide-angle structural function confirmed the state of the nanoparticles every time step and indicated that at the end of the simulation they were melted with different behavior. Small-angle scattering analysis showed that the system is expanded due to heating given to the system. © 2025 American Institute of Physics Inc.. All rights reserved.
