  1. 1. Mechanical properties of SiC nanowires with polytypes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Anders Vesti; [2019]
    Keywords : atomistic modeling; nanowires; molecular dynamics; simulation; SiC; silicon carbide; fracture behavior; nanomechanics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this report, we model the mechanical properties and fracture behavior of SiC nanowires with different polytypes using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. The mechanical properties investigated are the Young’s modulus, the maximum tensile stress and the fracture strain. The three polytype tested are SiC (3C), (2H) and (4H). READ MORE

  3. 2. Slim Moly S makes hydrogen : Layer dependent electrocatalysis in hydrogen evolution reaction with individual MoS2 nanodevices

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

    Author : Martin Brischetto; [2018]
    Keywords : MoS2; hydrogen evolution reaction; HER; Electrocatalysis; nanodevice;

    Abstract : Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has been demonstrated to be a potential catalyst in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Due to its highly active edge site, abundance, and low cost, it rivals Pt. However, the potential activity of the MoS2 basal plane has largely been ignored. READ MORE
