Geometry-controlled competition between axis centering and detwinning in fivefold-twinned gold nanoparticles
Silvia Fasce, Diana Nelli, Luca Benzi +2
Fivefold-twinned metal nanoparticles host a central wedge disclination that strongly influences their mechanical and catalytic properties. Yet the atomistic mechanisms governing th…
Swinging Crystal Edge of Growing Carbon Nanotubes
Georg Daniel Förster, Vladimir Pimonov, Huy-Nam Tran +3
Recent direct measurements of the growth kinetics of individual carbon nanotubes revealed abrupt changes in the growth rate of nanotubes maintaining the same crystal structure. The…
Simulation of thermodynamic properties of magnetic transition metals from an efficient tight-binding model
Alexis Front, Georg Förster, Van-Truong Tran +4
Atomic scale simulations at finite temperature are an ideal approach to study the thermodynamic properties of magnetic transition metals. However, the development of interatomic po…
A Semi-Grand Canonical Kinetic Monte Carlo study of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes growth
Georg Daniel Förster, Thomas D. Swinburne, Hua Jiang +2
Single-walled carbon nanotubes exist in a variety of different geometries, so-called chiralities, that define their electronic properties. Chiral selectivity has been reported in c…
A deep learning approach for determining the chiral indices of carbon nanotubes from high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images
G. D. Förster, A. Castan, A. Loiseau +5
Chiral indices determine important properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Unfortunately, their determination from high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images, t…
Depressions by stacking faults in nanorippled graphene on metals
Georg Daniel Förster, Alexandre Artaud, Estelle Mazaleyrat +9
A broad variety of defects has been observed in two-dimensional materials. Many of these defects can be created by top-down methods such as electron irradiation or chemical etching…
Alloy, Janus and core-shell nanoparticles: Numerical modeling of their nucleation and growth in physical synthesis
Georg Daniel Förster, Magali Benoit, Julien Lam
While alloy, core-shell and Janus binary nanoclusters are found in more and more technological applications, their formation mechanisms are still poorly understood, especially duri…
