    nanomaterials Article Vibration Control of Diamond Nanothreads by Lattice Defect Introduction for Application in Nanomechanical Sensors Xiao-Wen Lei 1,* , Kazuki Bando 1 and Jin-Xing Shi 2 1 Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Fukui, 3-9-1 Bunkyo, Fukui 910-8507, Japan; [email protected] 2 Department of Production Systems Engineering and Sciences, Komatsu University, Nu 1-3 Shicyomachi, Komatsu 923-8511, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-776-27-8544 Abstract: Carbon nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene sheets (GSs), have been adopted as resonators in vibration-based nanomechanical sensors because of their extremely high stiffness and small size. Diamond nanothreads (DNTs) are a new class of one-dimensional carbon nanomaterials with extraordinary physical and chemical properties. Their structures are similar to that of diamond in that they possess sp3-bonds formed by a covalent interaction between multiple benzene molecules. In this study, we focus on investigating the mechanical properties and vibration behaviors of DNTs with and without lattice defects and examine the influence of density and configuration of lattice defects on the two them in detail, using the molecular dynamics method and a continuum mechanics approach. We find that Young’s modulus and the natural frequency can be controlled by alternating the density of the lattice defects. Furthermore, we investigate and explore the use of DNTs as resonators in nanosensors. It is shown that applying an additional extremely small Citation: Lei, X.-W.; Bando, K.; mass or strain to all types of DNTs significantly changes their resonance frequencies.

Mallouk Professor of Chemistry, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Physics, and Engineering Science and Mechanics Head of the Department of Chemistry *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Carbon nanomaterials such as fullerenes, nanotubes, and graphene have been widely studied in recent decades. Benefitting from their unique bonding, they possess extraordinary physical and chemical properties. Compared with sp2 hybridized carbon allotropes, there are significantly fewer new carbon materials dominated by sp3 bonding that have been developed. Adamantane and graphane represent the smallest unit and thinnest sheet of diamond possible, respectively. One-dimensional, mostly sp3 hybridized nanocarbon, did not yet exist in 2013, when the first synthesis of carbon nanothreads finally filled up the last remaining entry in the matrix of dimensionality and hybridization of carbon nanomaterials that year. Carbon nanothread was first made by compressing benzene to ~25 GPa in a large-volume anvil cell and slowly decompressing back to ambient pressure by an alumnus of the Badding group.

Carbon can exist in one of its two thermodynamically stable bulk crystals, graphite or diamond, one of its several nanostructures: fullerene, nanotube, or graphene, or as an amorphous material with a mixed bonding pattern. Carbon also has an ability to bond heteroatoms such as hydrogen which can increase its properties and structures even further. Pressure has been shown to be able to drastically change the bonding in and structure of carbon based materials. In this dissertation I will present how pressure can be used to synthesize new amorphous hydrogenated carbons and how a battery of analytical techniques can be used to elicit the microstructure of the carbon networks. This microstructure can then be related back to the reaction conditions and more importantly the starting small molecule.

E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] arXiv:1803.04694v1 [cond-mat.mtrl-sci] 13 Mar 2018 1 Abstract The newly synthesized ultrathin carbon nanothreads have drawn great attention from the carbon community. Here, based on first-principles calculations, we investigate the electronic properties of carbon nanothreads under the influence of two important factors: the Stone-Wales (SW) type defect and the lattice strain. The SW defect is intrinsic to the polymer-I structure of the nanothreads and is a building block for the general hybrid structures. We find that the bandgap of the nanothreads can be tuned by the concentration of SW defects in a wide range of 3:92 ∼ 4:82 eV, interpolating between the bandgaps of sp3-(3,0) structure and the polymer-I structure. Under strain, the bandgaps of all the structures, including the hybrid ones, show a nonmonotonic variation: the bandgap first increases with strain, then drops at large strain above 10%. The gap size can be effectively tuned by strain in a wide range (> 0:5 eV). Interestingly, for sp3-(3,0) structure, a switch of band ordering occurs under strain at the valence band maximum, and for the polymer-I structure, an indirect-to-direct-bandgap transition occurs at about 8% strain.

Through in silico studies and continuum elasticity theory, here we show that the ultra-thin carbon nanothreads-based bundles exhibit a high mechanical energy storage fi 1234567890():,; density. Speci cally, the gravimetric energy density is found to decrease with the number of filaments, with torsion and tension as the two dominant contributors. Due to the coupled stresses, the nanothread bundle experiences fracture before reaching the elastic limit of any individual deformation mode. Our results show that nanothread bundles have similar mechanical energy storage capacity compared to (10,10) carbon nanotube bundles, but possess their own advantages. For instance, the structure of the nanothread allows us to realize the full mechanical energy storage potential of its bundle structure through pure tension, with a gravimetric energy density of up to 1.76 MJ kg−1, which makes them appealing alternative building blocks for energy storage devices. 1 School of Mechanical, Medical and Process Engineering, Queensland University of Technology (QUT), Brisbane, QLD 4001, Australia. 2 Center for Materials Science, Queensland University of Technology (QLD), Brisbane, QLD 4001, Australia. 3 Institute of High Performance Computing, Agency for Science, Technology and Research, 1 Fusionopolis Way, Singapore 138632, Singapore. 4 University of Southern Queensland, Springfield Central, QLD 4300, Australia. 5 Deparment of Mechanical Engineering, National University of Singapore, 9 Engineering Drive 1, Singapore 11576, Singapore.

While most materials are created at or near ambient conditions, exploiting extreme environments, notably high pressures and temperatures, has tremendous potential for manipulating matter to synthesize next-generation materials with transformative impacts on energy. Moreover, extreme environments are capable of producing materials with unprecedented mechanical, thermal, and electronic properties. The Center's research projects are organized around three Energy Focus Areas: 1) Advanced Structural Materials: Use of extreme environments to develop tailored synthetic routes for the discovery, characterization, and preparation

  • Thermal Transports of One-Dimensional Ultrathin Carbon Structures
    Thermal transports of one-dimensional ultrathin carbon structures Jing Xue1,2, Yuee Xie1,2*, Qing Peng3 and Yuanping Chen1,2* 1School of Physics and Optoelectronics, Xiangtan University, Xiangtan, 411105, Hunan, China 2 Faculty of Science, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang, 212013, Jiangsu, China 3Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, U.S.A. Abstract Carbon atomic chain, linear benzene polymers, and carbon nanothreads are all one- dimensional (1D) ultrathin carbon structures. They possess excellent electronic and mechanical properties; however, their thermal transport properties have been rarely explored. Here, we systematically study their thermal conductance by combining the nonequilibrium Green’s function and force field methods. The thermal conductance varies from 0.24 to 1.00 nW/K at 300 K, and phonon transport in the linear benzene polymers and carbon nanothreads is strongly dependent on the connectivity styles between the benzene rings. We propose a simple 1D model, namely force-constant model, that explains the complicated transport processes in these structures. Our study not only reveals intrinsic mechanisms of phonon transport in these carbon structures, but also provides an effective method to analyze thermal properties of other 1D ultrathin structures made of only several atomic chains.

Introduction Graphene is an ideal electronic and thermal transport material because of its superhigh electronic and thermal conductivities [1-3]. However, a standard transport system is a one-dimensional (1D) structure [4,5], in which the carriers (electron or phonon) propagate from one side to another. Moreover, the increasing miniaturization of devices requires thin channels [6-9].
