Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The crucial factor determining diameter and chirality of carbon nanotubes in the thin film is studied in this study. Firstly, energy of nickel/graphite interface with matched orientation relationships is systematically examined using various calculation techniques and it is revealed that most stable structure depends on the simulation methodology. Moreover, the dissociation process of carbon source molecules is investigated using ab initio molecular dynamics simulation. It is revealed that the C-C bonds in the CHxCO fragment molecules is preferentially dissociated.
