Abstract

Computer modeling of the one-dimensional and three-dimensional nanoparticles with Van-der-Waals interaction was performed. The arrangement of atoms was defined on the grounds of an energy minimum. The calculations have shown that in the presence of vacancies in a nanoparticle and the account of a relaxation and oscillations the nanoparticle will pulse. This pulsation on distance between atoms of a nanoparticle is observed in both one-dimensional and a three-dimensional cases.
