Transient deformation regime in bending of single-walled carbon nanotubes.
Pure bending of single-walled carbon nanotubes between (5,5) and (50,50) is studied using molecular dynamics based on the reactive bond order potential. Unlike smaller nanotubes, bending of (15,15) and larger ones exhibits an intermediate deformation in the transition between the buckled and fully kinked configurations. This transient bending regime is characterized by a gradual and controllabl...
متن کاملCarbon Nanotubes under Bending Strain
Bending induced deformations in single walled carbon nanotubes with zigzag and armchair chirality have been studied computationally using a classical molecular dynamics simulation method. In this the interatomic forces have been described with Brenner’s empirical model potential. The results given by this classical model have been assessed by letting the most critical, i.e. the most deformed pa...
متن کاملBundles of identical double-walled carbon nanotubes.
In a sample produced by catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD), the structure of the carbon nanotubes (diameter and helicity) which governs their electronic properties, is determined by electron diffraction. We found that most of the smallest bundles are constituted of identical double-walled carbon nanotubes.
متن کاملBuckling of Double-walled Carbon Nanotubes
This paper is concerned with the buckling of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) under axial load. The DWCNTs are modelled as two cylindrical shells, one shell nested in the other and Winkler springs are introduced to connect them in order to simulate the van der Waals forces between the two nanotubes. By using the Donnell thin shell theory, we derive the governing equations for the bucklin...
متن کاملSubbands in Carbon Nanotubes under Radial Deformation
Carbon nanotubes, which consist of only carbon atoms, were first discovered by Iijima [1] and can be thought of as a single layer of graphite that is wrapped into a cylinder. The cylindrical nanotubes are very stable and are regarded as the strongest fibers ever; nanotubes are extremely rigid to distortions along the tube axis whereas they are very flexible to those perpendicular to the axis [2...
