Chiral organic molecular structures supported by multilayer surfaces
Alexander V. Savin, Yuri S. Kivshar
We study numerically the dynamics of acetanilide (ACN) molecules placed on a flat surface of a multilayer hexagonal boron nitride structure. We demonstrate that the ACN molecules,…
Localized nonlinear excitations of a columnar chain of coronene molecules
Alexander V. Savin, Sergey V. Dmitriev
The nonlinear dynamics of a one-dimensional molecular crystal in the form of a chain of planar coronene molecules is analyzed. Using molecular dynamics, it is shown that a chain of…
Modeling of second sound in carbon nanostructures
Alexander V. Savin, Yuri S. Kivshar
The study of thermal transport in low-dimensional materials has attracted a lot of attention recently after discovery of high thermal conductivity of graphene. Here we study numeri…
Friction and mobility of carbon nanoparticles on a graphene sheet
Alexander V. Savin
It is shown using the method of molecular dynamics that the motion of carbon nanoparticles (rectangular graphene flakes, spherical fullerenes of size nm) on the surface of a…
Multistability of carbon nanotube packings on flat substrate
Alexander V. Savin
It is shown by the method of molecular dynamics using a chain model that a multilayer packaging of identical single-walled carbon nanotubes with a diameter of D>2.5 nm located on a…
Rotobreathers in a chain of coupled elastic rotators
Alexander V. Savin, Ilsiya R. Sunagatova, Sergey V. Dmitriev
Rotobreathers in the chain of coupled linearly elastic rotators are analyzed. Each rotator is a particle connected by a massless elastic rod with a frictionless pivot; it has two d…
