Mechanical and Thermal Stability of Carbon Nanotube Junctions

Shi S.Q., Liu W.C., Meng F.Y., The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, CN

Mechanical and thermal stability of carbon nanotube junctions was studied using molecular dynamics simulation method. Junctions made from armchair and zigzag thin carbon nanotubes were first formed by thermal welding process, then tested under 1D [...]

Effects of Stone-Wales Defect on Adsorption & Insertion Capacity of Nanotubes

Zhou L.G., Meng F.Y., Shi S.Q., Hong Kong Polytechnic University, CN

As more experimental results become available and theoretical investigations get deeper, carbon nanotube (CNT) is found to be not as perfect as it seems. Due to this reason, the presence and roles of defects in [...]
