Argentina Abstract Computer simulations of generation of bimetallic nanoparticle are shown in the present work. Two different growth mechanisms are used: cluster-cluster collision by means of molecular (atom) dynamics simulations by one way, and grand canonical Monte Carlo (gcMC) calculations to simulation bimetallic nanoparticle growth from a previous seed. Different structures are found when two metal nanoparticles collide: core/shell, alloyed and three shell (A-B-A) ones. By other hand, the growth mechanism at different chemical potentials by means of gcMC reveals the same results than atom dynamics collisions.
