Mechanical oscillation of kinked silicon nanowires: A natural nanoscale spring

(author unknown)



Jin-Wu Jiang and Timon Rabczuk

We perform classical molecular dynamics simulations to demonstrate the application of kinked silicon nanowires (KSiNWs) as nanoscale springs. The spring-like oscillation in gigahertz frequency range is successfully actuated using a similar procedure as the actuation of a classical mass spring osci ... [Appl. Phys.
