Local bond order parameters of 2624 atoms at 5K (quenched)
The configuration is 2624 atoms at 5K minimized by conjugate gradient
method. The criterion of coloring atoms according to local bond order
parameters is (sequentially):
structure |
rule |
color |
symbol |
icosahedral |
Q6>0.3 && W6<-0.12 |
Dark Red |
Cu |
fcc |
Q4>0.16 && W4<-0.13 |
Golden |
Au |
hcp |
Q4<0.12 && W4>0.10 |
Green |
Cd |
other |
else |
Gray |
Ag |
Interestingly, there have no atoms with icosahedral local structure (except
several trivial surface atoms).
In order to see internal structures clearly, up to 3 surface layers have
been cut off.
