Structure of Lennard–Jones nanowires encapsulated by carbon nanotubes

Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to investigate the structures of Lennard–Jones(LJ) nanowires(NWs) encapsulated in carbon nanotubes(CNTs). We find that the structures of NWs in a small CNT only adopt multi-shell motifs, while the structures of NWs in a larger CNT tend to adopt various motifs. Among these structures, three of them have not been reported previously. The phase boundaries among these structures are obtained regarding filling fractions, as well as the interaction between NWs and CNTs.     

Sr掺杂对La_(1-x)Sr_xMnO_3/LaAlO_3/SrTiO_3界面电子结构的影响

采用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理计算方法,系统地研究了La_(1-x)Sr_xMnO_3层中Sr的掺杂方式和掺杂量对4La_(1-x)Sr_xMnO_3/3LaAlO_3/4SrTiO_3(LSMO/LAO/STO)异质结构原子和电子结构的影响.结果表明:对于相同的Sr掺杂量,掺杂方式的差异对体系电子结构的影响微弱,不会导致体系发生金属-绝缘体转变;掺杂量的不同对体系电子结构有着显著的影响,当Sr的掺杂量较少时,LAO/STO界面处存在着准二维电子气,当Sr的掺杂量高于1/3时,LAO/STO界面处准二维电子气消失.我们相信,Sr的引入以及通过Sr掺杂量的改变可以对LSMO覆盖层极化进行调控,这也是导致体系LAO/STO界面处金属-绝缘体转变的可能原因,进一步为极化灾变机制导致的界面处电子重构提供了证据.     

模型二元有序合金固液界面结构的分子动力学研究

采用分子动力学方法,研究了模型二元有序合金体系的平衡界面结构和界面处原子的扩散行为.计算结果表明,该二元有序合金的固液界面属于光滑界面.由于固体中同时存在结构和化学有序,从而导致界面处的原子结构与单质以及异质固液界面的结构明显不同.在界面法向方向上,粒子数密度呈复杂的波动行为,并延伸到液体中约30 (A).对界面层的二维结构分析表明,固液转变层部分原子形成了二维固体团簇.从固体到液体,扩散系数从零逐渐增加到一个饱和值.在界面处附近,平行于界面方向的扩散系数明显比垂直于界面方向的大.
