Modern electronic devices are characterized by high-power and high-frequency with excessive heat accumulation. Thermal interface materials (TIMs) are of crucial importance …
Semiconductor nanowires are widely considered as the building blocks that revolutionized many areas of nanosciences and nanotechnologies. The unique features in nanowires …
The excellent mechanical properties of carbon nanofibers bring promise for energy-related applications. Through in silico studies and continuum elasticity theory, here we show that the …
Diamond nanothread (DNT), which has been recently found to outperform other conventional carbon-based nanomaterials, is a promising reinforcer for polymer composites …
Synthesis of well-ordered reduced dimensional carbon solids with extended bonding remains a challenge. For example, few single-crystal organic monomers react under …

Carbon nanothreads are a new one-dimensional sp3 carbon nanomaterial. They assemble into hexagonal crystals in a room temperature, nontopochemical solid-state reaction …
The single layer diamond–diamane, a two-dimensional (2D) form of diamond with a bilayer sp 3 carbon nanostructure, has been initially predicted in 2009, while its experimental …
A clear understanding of carbon fiber (CF) microstructure is necessary for the development of high strength CFs. Here, we present an atomistic approach for generating and …
Nanothreads are one-dimensional nanomaterials composed of a primarily sp3 hydrocarbon backbone, typically formed through the compression of small molecules to high pressures …
