Noncrystalline Structures of Ultrathin Unsupported Nanowires
Open accessAbstract
Computer simulations suggest that ultrathin metal wires should develop exotic, noncrystalline stable atomic structures once their diameter decreases below a critical size of the order of a few atomic spacings. The new structures, whose details depend upon the material and the wire thickness, may be dominated by icosahedral packings. Helical, spiral-structured wires with multiatom pitches are also predicted. The phenomenon, analogous to the appearance of icosahedral and other noncrystalline shapes in small clusters, can be rationalized in terms of surface energy anisotropy and optimal packing.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
