In recent year, the quantum device has been rapid developed. The quantum conductor has been of great interest for most authors, and one of that is gold nanowire. As the diameter of the gold nanowire is smaller than 2nm, the structure arrangement is affected by surface tensor, and therefore the FCC structure will self assemble to a helical structure. However, the nanowire would be used in quantum devices, therefore, the material property must be understood and investigated. The properties of nanowire would be a significant on development of quantum device in the future.
In this study, the molecular dynamics is employed to investigate the mechanical properties of the helical multi-shall gold nanowires and nanowries of the bulk FCC. The stress and strain relationship is obtained form the tensile and compressed tests. In addition, the yielding stress, maximum stress, Young¡¦s modulus, and breaking force can be determined from the tensile test and compressed test. Moreover, the different length/diameter ratio, temperature, and strain rate effects on mechanical properties and deformation behaviors are also investigated. The structure transform from crystalline to non-crystalline is also observed by the variation of radial distribution function (RDF) and angular correlation function (ACF). In this study, the tight-binding many body potential is employed to model the interaction between gold atoms.
