Platinum atomic contacts: from tunneling to contact
Linda A. Zotti, Rubén Pérez
We present a theoretical study of the electronic transport through Pt nanocontacts. We show that the analysis of the tunnelling regime requires a very careful treatment of the tech…

First-principles Simulations of the stretching and final breaking of Al nanowires: Mechanical properties and electrical conductance
Pavel Jelínek, Rubén Pérez, José Ortega +1
The evolution of the structure and conductance of an Al nanowire subject to a tensile stress has been studied by first-principles total-energy simulations. Our calculations show th…
