STABILITY OF FINITE-SIZE ARGON THIN FILM COATING SINGLE WALL CARBON NANOTUBE

Abstract

The structure and the dynamics of the argon thin film coating (15,4) and (12,12) carbon nanotubes have been studied in a series of molecular dynamic simulations. In the studied temperature regime, the argon atoms in the thin film were well localized. Structural changes and diffusion process inside the argon layers were not been observed. The influence of the chirality and the radius of the nanotube to the cluster properties is also reported.

Keywords:

nanotube, molecular dynamics, cluster, thin film
