Strain Rate Induced Amorphization in Metallic Nanowires
Using molecular dynamics simulations with a many-body force field, we studied the deformation of metal alloy nanowires subjected to various strain rates. For all strain rates, the Ni nanowire is elastic up to of 7.5% strain with a yield stress of 5.5 GPa, far above that of bulk Ni. At high strain rates, the crystalline phase transforms continuously to an amorphous phase, exhibiting a dramatic c...
متن کاملPressure-induced amorphization in the nanoindentation of single crystalline silicon
Large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of nanoindentation on a (100) oriented silicon surface were performed to investigate the mechanical behavior and phase transformation of single crystalline silicon. The direct crystalline-to-amorphous transformation is observed during the nanoindentation with a spherical indenter as long as the applied indentation strain or load is large enough. This a...
متن کاملIrradiation-induced defect clustering and amorphization in silicon carbide
Previous computer simulations of multiple 10 keV Si cascades in 3C–SiC demonstrated that many damage-state properties exhibit relatively smooth, but noticeably different, dose dependencies. A more recent analysis of these damage-state properties, which includes additional data at low and intermediate doses, reveals more complex relationships between system energy, swelling, energy per defect, r...
متن کاملHigh pressure Raman scattering of silicon nanowires.
We study the high pressure response, up to 8 GPa, of silicon nanowires (SiNWs) with ∼ 15 nm diameter, by Raman spectroscopy. The first order Raman peak shows a superlinear trend, more pronounced compared to bulk Si. Combining transmission electron microscopy and Raman measurements we estimate the SiNWs' bulk modulus and the Grüneisen parameters. We detect an increase of Raman linewidth at ∼ 4 G...
متن کاملAmorphization and Fracture in Silicon Diselenide Nanowires: A Molecular Dynamics Study.
Dynamics of amorphization and fracture in SiSe 2 nanowires are studied using the molecular-dynamics method. We find that fracture is initiated in an amorphous region at the nanowire surface. Local amorphization propagates across the nanowire while multiple cracks start at the boundaries of the amorphous region. Results for the time evolution of amorphization, crack propagation, and fracture are...
