Size and Shape Dependence on Melting Temperature of Gallium Nitride Nanoparticles

The study of variation of the size and shape effect on the melting property of gallium nitride nanoparticles with their spherical and cylindrical geometrical feature is theoretically explored. A numerical thermodynamical model has been devoted for the study. A comparative investigation is made betwe...
