Impact of Cross-Section and Size on Vibration of Silicon Nanowires

Abstract:

In this article, impact of cross-section and size on vibration of silicon nanowires is simulated by the molecular dynamics method based on molecular dynamics software Material Studio. The comparison of fundamental frequencies of the silicon nanowires with triangle, diamond, and hexagon cross sections is carried out. The orientations of these silicon nanowires are all in <111> direction. Then we change the length and the width of silicon nanowires to investigate the impact of size on vibration of silicon nanowires. The results show that with the influence of surface effect, the vibration frequency of silicon nanowires strongly depends on cross-section and size.
