Pentadiamond is a recently proposed new carbon allotrope consisting of a network of pentagonal rings where both sp$^2$ and sp$^3$ hybridization are present. In this work we investigated the mechanical and electronic properties, as well as, the thermal stability of pentadiamond using DFT and fully atomistic reactive molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We also investigated its properties beyond the elastic regime for three different deformation modes: compression, tensile and shear. The behavior of pentadiamond under compressive deformation showed strong fluctuations in the atomic positions which are responsible for the strain softening at strains beyond the linear regime, which characterizes the plastic flow. As we increase temperature, as expected, Youngs modulus values decrease, but this variation (up to 300 K) is smaller than 10% (from 347.5 to 313.6 GPa), but the fracture strain is very sensitive, varying from $sim$44% at 1K to $sim$5% at 300K.

Recently, an experimental study developed an efficient way to obtain sulfur-doped gamma-graphdiyne. This study has shown that this new material could have promising applications in lithium-ion batteries, but the complete understanding of how the sulf
ur atoms are incorporated into the graphdiyne network is still missing. In this work, we have investigated the sulfur doping process through molecular dynamics and density functional theory simulations. Our results suggest that the doped induced distortions of the gamma-graphdiyne pores prevent the incorporation of more than two sulfur atoms. The most common configuration is the incorporation of just one sulfur atom per the graphdiyne pore.
In this study, we report the mechanical properties and fracture mechanism of pre-cracked and defected InSe nanosheet samples using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We noticed that the failure of pre-cracked and defected InSe nanosheet is governed
by brittle type fracture. Armchair directional bonds exhibit a greater resistance for crack propagation relative to the zigzag directional ones. Thus, fracture strength of the pre-cracked sheet is slightly higher for zigzag directional loading than that for armchair. We evaluated the limitation of the applicability of Griffiths criterion for single layer (SL) InSe sheet for nano-cracks as the brittle failure of Griffith prediction demonstrates significant differences with the MD fracture strength. We inspected the effect of temperature on the mechanical properties of the pre-cracked samples of SLInSe. We also discussed the fracture mechanism of both defected and pre-cracked structure at length.
Recently, a new class of carbon allotrope called protomene was proposed. This new structure is composed of sp2 and sp3 carbon-bonds. Topologically, protomene can be considered as an sp3 carbon structure (~80% of this bond type) doped by sp2 carbons.
First-principles simulations have shown that protomene presents an electronic bandgap of ~3.4 eV. However, up to now, its mechanical properties have not been investigated. In this work, we have investigated protomene mechanical behavior under tensile strain through fully atomistic reactive molecular dynamics simulations using the ReaxFF force field, as available in the LAMMPS code. At room temperature, our results show that the protomene is very stable and the obtained ultimate strength and ultimate stress indicates an anisotropic behavior. The highest ultimate strength was obtained for the x-direction, with a value of ~110 GPa. As for the ultimate strain, the highest one was for the z-direction (~25% of strain) before protomene mechanical fracture.
In this work, we report on the mechanical responses and fracture behavior of pristine and defected monolayer 1T-Titanium Disulfide using classical molecular dynamics simulation. We investigated the effect of temperature, strain rate and defect ratio
on the uniaxial tensile properties in both armchair and zigzag direction. We found that monolayer TiS2 shows isotropic uniaxial tensile properties except for failure strain which is greater in zigzag direction than armchair direction. We also observed a negative correlation of ultimate tensile strength, failure strain and youngs modulus with temperature and defect ratio. Results depicts that strain rate has no effect on the youngs modulus of monolayer TiS2 but higher strain rate results in higher ultimate tensile strength and failure strain.
We present the first time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) calculation on a light harvesting triad carotenoid-diaryl-porphyrin-C60. Besides the numerical challenge that the ab initio study of the electronic structure of such a large system
presents, we show that TDDFT is able to provide an accurate description of the excited state properties of the system. In particular we calculate the photo-absorption spectrum of the supra-molecular assembly, and we provide an interpretation of the photo-excitation mechanism in terms of the properties of the component moieties. The spectrum is in good agreement with experimental data, and provides useful insight on the photo-induced charge transfer mechanism which characterizes the system.
