Controlling Movement at Nanoscale: Curvature Driven Mechanotaxis
Leonardo D. Machado, Rafael A. Bizao, Nicola M. Pugno +1
Locating and manipulating nano-sized objects to drive motion is a time and effort consuming task. Recent advances show that it is possible to generate motion without direct interve…
Thiophene-Tetrathia-Annulene monolayer (TTA-2D): A new 2D semiconductor material with indirect bandgap
Raphael M. Tromer, Leonardo D. Machado, Cristiano F. Woellner +1
We propose a new 2D semiconductor material (TTA-2D) based on the molecular structure of Thiophene-Tetrathia-Annulene (TTA). The TTA-2D structural, electronic, and optical propertie…
Zeolite-inspired 3d printed structures with enhanced mechanical properties
Rushikesh S. Ambekar, Eliezer F. Oliveira, Brijesh Kushwaha +7
Specific strength (strength/density) is a crucial factor while designing high load bearing architecture in areas of aerospace and defence. Strength of the material can be enhanced…
Carbon Nanotube Peapods Under High-Strain Rate Conditions: A Molecular Dynamics Investigation
J. M. De Sousa, C. F. Woellner, L. D. Machado +2
New forms of carbon-based materials have received great attention, and the developed materials have found many applications in nanotechnology. Interesting novel carbon structures i…
Three-dimensional carbon nanotube networks from beta zeolite templates: Thermal stability and mechanical properties
Eliezer F. Oliveira, Leonardo D. Machado, Ray H. Baughman +1
We here investigated the thermal and mechanical behaviors of three-dimensional beta zeolite-templated carbon nanotube networks (BZCN). These networks are topologically generated by…
Defect-Free Carbon Nanotube Coils
Nitzan Shadmi, Anna Kremen, Yiftach Frenkel +11
Carbon nanotubes are promising building blocks for various nanoelectronic components. A highly desirable geometry for such applications is a coil. However, coiled nanotube structur…
