Abstract

The eutectic transition of Ag-Pb alloy nanoparticles was investigated using in situ transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the eutectic temperature of Ag-Pb alloy nanoparticles decreased with decreasing particle size. A linear relationship was obtained for the eutectic temperature as a function of the reciprocal of the particle radius. Theoretical calculations based on the theory of thermodynamics also suggested a linear relationship between the eutectic temperature and the inverse radius. The calculated results were in good agreement with the experimental observations.
