가상의 단일벽 실리콘 나노튜브의 비틀림 = Torsion of Hypothetical Single-Wall Silicon Nanotubes

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The responses of hypothetical silicon nanotubes under torsion have been investigated using an atomistic simulation based on the Tersoff potential. A torque, proportional to the deformation within Hooke's law, resulted in the ribbon-like flattened shapes and eventually led to a breaking of hypothetical silicon nanotubes. Each shape change of hypothetical silicon nanotubcs corresponded to an abrupt energy change and a singularity in the strain energy curve as a function of the external tangential force, torque, or twisted angle. The dynamics o silicon nanotubes under torsion can be modelled in the continuum elasticity theory.
