Role of Interatomic Potentials in Simulation of Thermal Transport in Carbon Nanotubes
Interatomic potentials, which describe interactions between elements of nanosystems, are crucial in theoretical study of their physical properties. We focus on two well known empirical potentials, i.e. Tersoff's and Brenner's potentials, and compare their performance in calculation of thermal transport in carbon nanotubes. In this way, we study the temperature and diameter dependence of thermal...
متن کاملاثر نقاط جانبی بر هدایت میان ترکیبات چهار نقطه کوانتومی: مطالعه با روش تابع گرین غیرتعادلی
Electronic transport has been investigated in four-quantum-dot combination coupled to metal electrodes using the non-equilibrium Green’s function method, and curves I-V and conductance (dI/dV) were analyzed for special combination. We have showed that the emergence of negative differential conductivity is due to asymmetric distribution of quantum dots in the central region, existence of non-cou...

متن کاملSelective Tone Reservation Method for PAPR Reduction of Spatially Multiplexed OFDM Systems
Tone Reservation (TR) is one of the well-known methods for PAPR reduction of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems. In this method some sub-carriers are reserved for PAPR reduction and the symbols in these sub-carriers are selected such that the PAPR of the OFDM frame is minimized. In this paper, the iterative algorithm introduced earlier for TR method in single antenna OFDM...
