Bond-order–bond-length–bond-strength (bond-OLS) correlation mechanism for the shape-and-size dependence of a nanosolid

A bond-order–bond-length–bond-strength (bond-OLS) correlation mechanism is presented for consistent insight into the origin of the shape-and-size dependence of a nanosolid, aiming to provide guidelines for designing nanomaterials with desired functions. It is proposed that the coordination number imperfection of an atom at a surface causes the remaining bonds of the lower-coordinated surface atom to relax spontaneously; as such, the bond energy rises (in absolute value). The bond energy rise contributes not only to the cohesive energy (ECoh) of the surface atom but also to the energy density in the relaxed region. ECoh relates to thermodynamic properties such as self-assembly, phase transition and thermal stability of a nanosolid. The binding energy density rise is responsible for the changes of the system Hamiltonian and related properties, such as the bandgap, core-level shift, phonon frequency and the dielectrics of a nanosolid of which the surface curvature and the portion of surface atoms vary with particle size. The bond-OLS premise, involving no assumptions or freely adjustable parameters, has led to consistency between predictions and experimental observations of a number of outstanding properties of nanosolids.
