Figure 4From: Nanoparticle manipulation by thermal gradientThe positions of COM and the averaged amplitude of oscillation of C 60 . (a) The positions of COM of C60 as a function of simulation time under heat flux of 6.5 eV/ps. The inset shows the detailed oscillation of C60 in the Z-direction. (b) The amplitude of oscillation in the Z-direction as a function of the width of cold thermostat.Back to article page
