Trapping molecules in a covalent graphene-nanotube hybrid
Zhao Wang
This study employs molecular dynamics simulations to examine the physisorption behavior of hydrocarbon molecules on a covalent graphene-nanotube hybrid nanostructure. The results i…
Chirality-Selective Transport of Benzene Molecules on Carbon Nanotubes
Zhao Wang
Using molecular dynamics simulations, we predict an effect of chirality on the conduction of benzene molecules along the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) subjected to a thermal g…
Selective Conduction of Organic Molecules via Free-Standing Graphene
Zhao Wang
A race is held between ten species of organic gas molecules on a graphene substrate driven by thermal gradients via molecular dynamics. Fast conduction of the molecules is observed…
Low-Temperature Friction of Suspended Graphene: Negative friction?
Zhao Wang
Using molecular dynamics simulations, we probe a suspended graphene layer by a diamond-like-carbon tip at various temperatures. The force acting on the tip in the sliding direction…
Electrostatic deflections of cantilevered semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes
Z. Wang, M. Devel, R. Langlet +1
How carbon nanotubes behave in an external electric field? What will be the relation between the intensity of the electric field and the tube's deformation? What are the geometry e…
Electrostatic deflections of cantilevered metallic carbon nanotubes via charge-dipole model
Z. Wang, M. Devel
We compute electrostatic fields induced deformations of cantilevered finite-length metallic carbon nanotubes, using an energy minimization method based on a charge-dipole moment in…
