The ultrathin one-dimensional sp3 diamond nanothreads (NTHs), as successfully synthesised recently, have greatly augmented the interests from the carbon community. In principle, there can exist different stable NTH structures. In this work, we studied the mechanical behaviours of three representative NTHs using molecular dynamics simulations. It is found that the mechanical properties of NTH can vary significantly due to morphology differences, which are believed to originate from the different stress distributions determined by its structure. Further studies have shown that the temperature has a significant impact on the mechanical properties of the NTH. Specifically, the failure strength/strain decreases with increasing temperature, and the effective Youngs modulus appears independent of temperature. The remarkable reduction of the failure strength/strain is believed to be resulted from the increased bond re-arrangement process and free lateral vibration at high temperatures. In addition, the NTH is found to have a relatively high bending rigidity, and behaves more like flexible elastic rod. This study highlights the importance of structure-property relation and provides a fundamental understanding of the tensile behaviours of different NTHs, which should shed light on the design and also application of the NTH-based nanostructures as strain sensors and mechanical connectors.

Understanding temperature-dependent hardness of covalent materials is not only of fundamental scientific interest, but also of crucial importance for technical applications. In this work, a temperature-dependent hardness formula for diamond-structure
d covalent materials is constructed on the basis of the dislocation theory. Our results show that, at low temperature, the Vickers hardness is mainly controlled by Poissons ratio and shear modulus with the latter playing a dominant role. With increasing temperature, the plastic deformation mechanism undergoes a transition from shuffle-set dislocation control to glide-set dislocation control, leading to a steeper drop of hardness at high temperature. In addition, an intrinsic parameter, a3G, is revealed for diamond-structured covalent materials, which measures the resistance to soften at high temperature. Our hardness model shows remarkable agreement with experimental data. Current work not only sheds lights on the physical origin of hardness, but also provides a direct principle for superhard materials design.
This paper examines the effect of temperature on the structural stability and mechanical properties of 20 layered (10,10) single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under tensile loading using an O(N) tight binding molecular dynamics (TBMD) simulation m
ethod. We observed that (10,10) tube can sustain its structural stability for the strain values of 0.23 in elongation and 0.06 in compression at 300K. Bond breaking strain value decreases with increasing temperature under streching but not under compression. The elastic limit, Youngs modulus, tensile strength and Poisson ratio are calculated as 0.10, 0.395 TPa, 83.23 GPa, 0.285, respectively, at 300K. In the temperature range from 300K to 900K; Youngs modulus and the tensile strengths are decreasing with increasing temperature while the Poisson ratio is increasing. At higher temperatures, Youngs modulus starts to increase while the Poisson ratio and tensile strength decrease. In the temperature range from 1200K to 1800K, the SWCNT is already deformed and softened. Applying strain on these deformed and softened SWCNTs do not follow the same pattern as in the temperature range of 300K to 900K.
The temperature dependence of the optical and magnetic properties of CuO were examined by means of hybrid density functional theory calculations. Our work shows that the spin exchange interactions in CuO are neither fully one-dimensional nor fully th
ree-dimensional. The large temperature dependence of the optical band gap and the 63Cu nuclear quadrupole resonance frequency of CuO originate from the combined effect of a strong coupling between the spin order and the electronic structure and the progressive appearance of short-range order with temperature.
Boron-doped single crystal diamond films were grown homoepitaxially on synthetic (100) Type Ib diamond substrates using microwave plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition. A modification in surface morphology of the film with increasing boron concen
tration in the plasma has been observed using atomic force microscopy. Use of nitrogen during boron doping has been found to improve the surface morphology and the growth rate of films but it lowers the electrical conductivity of the film. The Raman spectra indicated a zone center optical phonon mode along with a few additional bands at the lower wavenumber regions. The change in the peak profile of the zone center optical phonon mode and its downshift were observed with the increasing boron content in the film. However, shrinkage and upshift of Raman line was observed in the film that was grown in presence of nitrogen along with diborane in process gas.
Available information concerning the elastic moduli of refractory carbides at temperatures (T) of relevance for practical applications is sparse and/or inconsistent. We carry out ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations at T = 300, 600, 900, a
nd 1200 K to determine the temperature-dependences of the elastic constants of rocksalt-structure (B1) TiC, ZrC, HfC, VC, and TaC compounds as well as multicomponent high-entropy carbides (Ti,Zr,Hf,Ta,W)C and (V,Nb,Ta,Mo,W)C. The second order elastic constants are calculated by least-square fitting of the analytical expressions of stress vs. strain relationships to simulation results obtained from three tensile and three shear deformation modes. Moreover, we employ sound velocity measurements to evaluate the bulk, shear, elastic moduli and Poissons ratios of single-phase B1 (Ti,Zr,Hf,Ta,W)C and (V,Nb,Ta,Mo,W)C at ambient conditions. Our experimental results are in excellent agreement with the values obtained by AIMD simulations. In comparison with the predictions of previous ab initio calculations - where the extrapolation of finite-temperature elastic properties accounted for thermal expansion while neglecting intrinsic vibrational effects - AIMD simulations produce a softening of elastic moduli with T in closer agreement with experiments. Results of our simulations show that TaC is the system which exhibits the highest elastic resistances to both tensile and shear deformation up to 1200 K, and identify the high-entropy (V,Nb,Ta,Mo,W)C system as candidate for applications that require good ductility and toughness at room as well as elevated temperatures.
