Abstract

Nanoscale aggregates of molecules exhibit different properties than bulk compounds [1]. Using the molecular dynamics simulation method [2] we study the system composed of fifty water molecules spread out evenly over fullerene surface. In our calculations we have applied the well-known Lennard-Jones interatomic potential. We have calculated the radial distribution function, velocity autocorrelation functions (linear and angular) and theirs corresponding spectra. Both solid and liquid state phases of (H2O)50 over C60 surface have been investigated. The considerable differences between dynamical properties of pure water cluster (H2O)50 and C60(H2O)50 cluster are observed.
