Further study on the existing controversy on the mechanical behaviour of silicon nanowires
A recent study has drawn a new aspect on the role played by the surface stress with a torsional profile on silicon nanowires to address the existing controversy from experimental and computational studies (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/327768951_Surface_Stress_Effect...). Motivated by its success, the implications of this surface stress profile on the tensile properties of silicon nanowires are studied through molecular dynamics simulations. A transition on elastic properties is obtained through changing the cross section from square to rectangular configuration.
