Abstract:
We study the theoretical van der Waals interaction of parallel gold nanowires (GNs) in matrix form with free extremities using molecular mechanics. It was calculated force, velocity, efficiency, thermodynamics properties like molar heat capacity, molar entropy variation and the relation between kinetic energy and temperature in situ of the GNs. We found new information about the nanowire behavior due to the matrix form. Each nanowire has 20 atoms and distant 27.78 angstroms from each one.
