Ab initio simulations of the mechanics and electrical transport of Pt nanowires
Based on first principles, theoretical studies of atomic-scale platinum contacts are presented. A short monatomic wire freely suspended between tips is seen to vibrate as its tensile load increases. The main vibration mode is transversal for lower tensions and longitudinal for higher tensions up to...
