Carbon-based nanostructured composite films: elastic, mechanical and optoelectronic properties derived from computer simulations

Maria Fyta, Christos Mathioudakis, Ioannis N. Remediakis +1

In this review, we present our recent computational work on carbon-based nanostructured composites. These materials consist of carbon crystallites embedded in an amorphous carbon m…

Reverse Hall-Petch effect in ultra nanocrystalline diamond

Ioannis N. Remediakis, Georgios Kopidakis, Pantelis C. Kelires

We present atomistic simulations for the mechanical response of ultra nanocrystalline diamond, a polycrystalline form of diamond with grain diameters of the order of a few nm. We c…

Softening of ultra-nanocrystalline diamond at low grain sizes

Ioannis N. Remediakis, Georgios Kopidakis, Pantelis C. Kelires

Ultra-nanocrystalline diamond is a polycrystalline material, having crystalline diamond grains of sizes in the nanometer regime. We study the structure and mechanical properties of…

Structure, elastic properties and strength of amorphous and nanocomposite carbon

Ioannis N. Remediakis, Maria G. Fyta, Christos Mathioudakis +2

We study theoretically the equilibrium structure, as well as the response under external load, of characteristic carbon-based materials. The materials considered include diamond, a…

Probing the Structure and Energetics of Dislocation Cores in SiGe Alloys through Monte Carlo Simulations

Ioannis N. Remediakis, David E. Jesson, Pantelis C. Kelires

We present a methodology for the investigation of dislocation energetics in segregated alloys based on Monte Carlo simulations which equilibrate the topology and composition of the…

Insights into the fracture mechanisms and strength of amorphous and nanocomposite carbon

Maria G. Fyta, Ioannis N. Remediakis, Pantelis C. Kelires +1

Tight-binding molecular dynamics simulations shed light into the fracture mechanisms and the ideal strength of tetrahedral amorphous carbon and of nanocomposite carbon containing d…
