On the Conundrum of the Heat Capacityof Metallic Nanoclasters

The heat capacity of nanoclusters was investigated using thermodynamics of surfaces, taking into account the surface enthalpy introduced by E. Guggenhein. It is shown that the cluster heat capacity Cp should be greater than the heat capacity C(b)p of the corresponding bulk phase. However, the (Cp -...
