Ground-state and excited-state molecular dynamics simulations shed light on the rotation mechanism of small, light-driven molecular motors and predict motor performance. How fast can they rotate; how much torque and power can they generate?

AbstractThe interactions of shocks with defects in two-dimensional square and hexagonal lattices of particles interacting through Lennard-Jones potentials are studied using molecular dynamics. In perfect lattices at zero temperature, shocks directed along one of the principal axes propagate through the crystal causing no permanent disruption. Vacancies, interstitials, and to a lesser degree, massive defects are all effective at converting directed shock motion into thermalized two-dimensional motion. Measures of lattice disruption quantitatively describe the effects of the different defects. The square lattice is unstable at nonzero temperatures, as shown by its tendency upon impact to reorganize into the lower-energy hexagonal state. This transition also occurs in the disordered region associated with the shock-defect interaction. The hexagonal lattice can be made arbitrarily stable even for shock-vacancy interactions through appropriate choice of potential parameters. In reactive crystals, these defect sites may be responsible for the onset of detonation. All calculations are performed using a program optimized for the massively parallel Connection Machine.
