The energetics of inorganic nanotubes

The energetics of inorganic nanotubes (INTs) are investigated using both atomistic and continuum models. A relatively simple (Tersoff-II) potential model is used to study the energetics of carbon nanotube (C-NT) formation for use as a well-understood reference system. INTs formed by folding sections...
