Molecular Dynamics Study of the Catalyst Particle Size Dependence on Carbon Nanotube Growth
Feng Ding, Arne Rosen, Kim Bolton
The molecular dynamics method, based on an empirical potential energy surface, was used to study the effect of catalyst particle size on the growth mechanism and structure of singl…

Molecular Dynamics Study of Bamboo-like Carbon Nanotube Nucleation
Feng Ding, Kim Bolton, Arne Rosen
MD simulations based on an empirical potential energy surface were used to study the nucleation of bamboo-like carbon nanotubes (BCNTs). The simulations reveal that inner walls of…

Dependence of SWNT Growth Mechanism on Temperature and Catalyst Particle Size: Bulk versus Surface Diffusion
Feng Ding, Arne Rosen, Kim Bolton
MD simulations reveal that many aspects of SWNT nucleation and growth from solid and liquid metal particles are similar. In both cases graphitic islands lift off the cluster surfac…
