AbstractIn this work, we have investigated the structural and mechanical properties of a new class of soft and superelastic materials, called schwarzynes. These materials are obtained by inserting sp carbon atoms (acetylenic groups) into the schwarzite framework. Using fully atomistic molecular dynamics simulations with the AIREBO force field, our results show that schwarzynes are stable materials up to high temperatures (1000K). Schwarzynes exhibit a very wide elastic regime, some of them up to 70% strain without structural fractures. Our preliminary results show that the elastic properties can be easily engineered by tuning the number of acetylenic groups and the crystallographic directions where they are inserted.

AbstractWe have performed molecular dynamics simulations of adatom diffusion on the SiC(001) surface and found that the barriers for carbon adatoms is less than that for silicon adatoms. The diffusion paths were also found to be temperature dependent and at high temperatures the adatom diffusion constant was found to of the order of 10−5 cm2 s−1.
