Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Strained and Defective Carbon Nanotubes
Carbon nanotubes are tubular molecules of pure carbon with typical diameters of 1 nm – 100 nm and lengths from 100 nm up to several cm. The nanotubes have outstanding electronical and mechanical properties which has resulted in remarkable scientific interest and in proporsals of various applications. For example, their ability to be either metals or semiconductors enables the usage of nanotubes...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulations of Heat Transfer of Carbon Nanotubes
Several heat transfer problems related to single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are considered using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The Brenner potential [1] with the simplified form [2] is employed as the potential function between carbon and carbon within a nanotube. MD simulations of thermal conductivity along a nanotube, isotope effect in longitudinal thermal conductivity, and therma...
متن کاملCoding Considerations for Standalone Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Atomistic Structures
The laws of Newtonian mechanics allow ab-initio molecular dynamics to model and simulate particle trajectories in material science by defining a differentiable potential function. This paper discusses some considerations for the coding of ab-initio programs for simulation on a standalone computer and illustrates the approach by C language codes in the context of embedded metallic atoms in the f...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulations of carbon nanotube/silicon interfacial thermal conductance.
Using molecular dynamics simulations with Tersoff reactive many-body potential for Si-Si, Si-C, and C-C interactions, we have calculated the thermal conductance at the interfaces between carbon nanotube (CNT) and silicon at different applied pressures. The interfaces are formed by axially compressing and indenting capped or uncapped CNTs against 2 x 1 reconstructed Si surfaces. The results show...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulations of Heat Transfer Issues in Carbon Nanotubes
Several heat transfer problems related to singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are considered through molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. MD simulations of thermal conductivity along a nanotube, isotope effect in longitudinal thermal conductivity, and thermal boundary resistance in a junction of nanotubes are reviewed. Then, the heat transfer from an SWNT to various surrounding materials is s...
