Application of a parallel genetic algorithm to the global optimization of medium-sized Au–Pd sub-nanometre clusters

To contribute to the discussion of the high activity and reactivity of Au–Pd system, we have adopted the BPGA-DFT approach to study the structural and energetic properties of medium-sized Au–Pd sub-nanometre clusters with 11–18 atoms. We have examined the structural behaviour and stability as a func...
