Nanodisturbances in deformed nanowires.

چکیده
A new physical mechanism of plastic deformation in nanowires is suggested and theoretically described. This mechanism represents formation of near-surface nanodisturbances-nanoscopic areas of plastic shear with tiny shear vectors-in deformed nanowires. We calculated the energy characteristics for nanodisturbance formation and compared them with those for conventional dislocation generation. It is shown that the nanodisturbance deformation mode tends to dominate in Au nanowires deformed at high stresses and zero temperature.

Computational Electromagnetic Analysis of Deformed Nanowires Using the Multilevel Fast Multipole Algorithm
We consider computational analysis of deformed nanowires and their arrays using a full-wave simulation environment based on integral-equation formulations and the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA). Without requiring any periodicity assumptions, MLFMA allows for fast and accurate simulations of complex nanowire structures with three-dimensional geometries and random deformations. We pr...

متن کاملMolecular statics simulations of buckling and yielding of gold nanowires deformed in axial compression
We use molecular statics simulations with the embedded atom method potential to delineate yielding (material instability) and buckling (structural instability) in gold nanowires deformed axially in compression. It is found that both local (stacking faults) and global instabilities occur when the gold nanowire yields but only global instabilities occur when the nanowire buckles. Furthermore stro...
متن کاملLarge-scale density functional theory investigation of failure modes in ZnO nanowires.
Electromechanical and photonic properties of semiconducting nanowires depend on their strain states and are limited by their extent of deformation. A fundamental understanding of the mechanical response of individual nanowires is therefore essential to assess system reliability and to define the design space of future nanowire-based devices. Here we perform a large-scale density functional theo...
متن کاملStrain sensing through the resonant properties of deformed metal nanowires
In this article, we study the potential of gold nanowires as resonant nanoscale strain sensors. The sensing ability of the nanowires is determined by calculating the variations in resonant frequency that occur due to applied uniaxial tensile and compressive strain. The resonant frequencies are obtained using the surface Cauchy–Born model, which captures surface stress effects on the nanowires t...
