Controlling the maneuverability of nanocars and molecular machines on the surface is
essential for the targeted transportation of materials and energy at the nanoscale. Here, we …

Controlling the directional motion of nanoparticles on the surface is particularly important for
human life, but achieving continuous transport is a time-consuming and demanding task …

Compared with a single defect or randomly distributed defects, aligned defects are widely
found or artificially designed in structures to realize various functions. However, the …

The buckling behavior of single-layer MoS 2 sheets under both uniaxial and biaxial
compression is studied in the present paper. The critical strain, critical stress, equivalent …

The article presents an investigation on the mechanics of single layer boron nitride–carbon
(BN–C) nanosheets using molecular dynamics simulations. The effective Young's modulus …

Locating and manipulating nano‐sized objects to drive motion is a time and effort
consuming task. Recent advances show that it is possible to generate motion without direct …

Fe 3 C filled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) self-organized into flexible-film-morphologies
(buckypapers) have been proposed for numerous applications, these include flexible data …

Accurately evaluating interfacial behavior is key and of exceptional meaning to characterize
the mechanical behavior of layered structures. Different from various sensors in macroscopic …

Directional transport of droplets is crucial for industrial applications and chemical
engineering processes, which has demonstrated considerable promise in several fields …

A nanoscale rotating system that consists of a double-walled carbon nanotube (DWCNT)
and graphene and is driven by a defect in the graphene is proposed, and its rotating …
