摘要: The dependency of the surface-to-volume coordination number upon particle size has been obtained by an analytical function based our previous work, and a model for melting temperature as is presented. This expression nonlinear relation in terms reciprocal size. Also, geometrical characteristics nanoclusters have applied to general equation nanoparticles. It was found that results considering are good agreement with achieved derived function. Finally, this compared other theoretical models well available experimental data. predictions consistent
