Fig. 1From: Effects of Defects on the Mechanical Properties of Kinked Silicon NanowiresThe geometry of KSiNWs. a KSiNWs fabricated by alternating MACE. b Typical defects in KSiNWs. c Molecular dynamic model of perfect KSiNWs. The periodic boundary condition was applied in the axial direction, and the free boundary condition was applied in the lateral direction. d Surface defects in the model of KSiNWs. Both ends of the KSiNWs were pulled simultaneouslyBack to article page
