The role of structural evolution on the quantum conductance behavior of gold nanowires during stretching
L. G. C. Rego, A. R. Rocha, V. Rodrigues +1
Gold nanowires generated by mechanical stretching have been shown to adopt only three kinds of configurations where their atomic arrangements adjust such that either the [100], [11…

Quantum Conductance in Silver Nanowires: correlation between atomic structure and transport properties
V. Rodrigues, J. Bettini, A. R. Rocha +2
We have analyzed the atomic arrangements and quantum conductance of silver nanowires generated by mechanical elongation. The surface properties of Ag induce unexpected structural p…
