Catalytic Formation of Narrow Nb Nanowires inside Carbon Nanotubes
Dan Liu, David Tomanek
We propose a previously unexplored way to form Nb nanowires from NbCl molecules inside carbon nanotubes (CNTs). We have studied this reaction by ab initio density functional ca…

In-Plane Breathing and Shear Modes in Low-Dimensional Nanostructures
Dan Liu, Colin Daniels, Vincent Meunier +2
We use continuum elasticity theory to revise scaling laws for radial breathing-like and shear-like vibration modes in quasi-2D nanostructures including finite-width nanoribbons and…

Effect of Net Charge on the Relative Stability of 2D Boron Allotropes
Dan Liu, David Tomanek
We study the effect of electron doping on the bonding character and stability of two-dimensional (2D) structures of elemental boron, called borophene, which is known to form many s…
