The potential component of the specific internal energy (ΔU) shows a decreasing trend with increasing particle size: for 2,000 atoms, it is −3.98 eV/atom, for 5,000 atoms – −4.03 eV/atom, and for 10,000 atoms – −4.06 eV/atom, indicating structural stabilization with increasing nanoparticle size (see Figure - a, c, e).
