We consider longitudinal nonlinear atomic vibrations in uniformly strained carbon chains with the cumulene structure ($=C=C=)_{n}$. With the aid of ab initio simulations, based on the density functional theory, we have revealed the phenomenon of the $pi$-mode softening in a certain range of its amplitude for the strain above the critical value $eta_{c}approx 11,{%}$. Condensation of this soft mode induces the structural transformation of the carbon chain with doubling of its unit cell. This is the Peierls phase transition in the strained cumulene, which was previously revealed in [Nano Lett. 14, 4224 (2014)]. The Peierls transition leads to appearance of the energy gap in the electron spectrum of the strained carbyne, and this material transforms from the conducting state to semiconducting or insulating states. The authors of the above paper emphasize that such phenomenon can be used for construction of various nanodevices. The $pi$-mode softening occurs because the old equilibrium positions (EQPs), around which carbon atoms vibrate at small strains, lose their stability and these atoms begin to vibrate in the new potential wells located near old EQPs. We study the stability of the new EQPs, as well as stability of vibrations in their vicinity. In previous paper [Physica D 203, 121(2005)], we proved that only three symmetry-determined Rosenberg nonlinear normal modes can exist in monoatomic chains with arbitrary interparticle interactions. They are the above-discussed $pi$-mode and two other modes, which we call $sigma$-mode and $tau$-mode. These modes correspond to the multiplication of the unit cell of the vibrational state by two, three or four times compared to that of the equilibrium state. We study properties of these modes in the chain model with arbitrary pair potential of interparticle interactions.
Nonlinear vibrations in strained monoatomic carbon chains are studied with the aid of ab initio methods based on the density functional theory. An unexpected phenomenon of structural transformation at the atomic level above a certain value of the str
We demonstrate dynamical topological phase transitions in evolving Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) lattices made of interacting soliton arrays, which are entirely driven by nonlinearity and thereby exemplify emergent nonlinear topological phenomena. The p
We study ``nanoptera, which are non-localized solitary waves with exponentially small but non-decaying oscillations, in two singularly-perturbed Hertzian chains with precompression. These two systems are woodpile chains (which we model as systems of
We propose carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with magnetic impurities as a versatile platform to achieve unconventional Kondo physics, where the CNT bath is gapped by the spin-orbit interaction and surface curvature. While the strong-coupling phase is inaccess
We study Majorana zero energy modes (MZEM) that occur in a s-wave superconducting surface, at the ends of a ferromagnetic (FM) chain of adatoms, in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit interaction (SOI) considering both non self-consistent and self-cons
