A molecular dynamics study of the clustering of implanted potassium in multiwalled carbon nanotubes
چکیده انگلیسی
We have studied the low energy irradiation of carbon nanotubes (CNT) with K ions using classical molecular dynamics simulations with analytical potentials. The studied CNTs had diameters of about 0.5-1.2 nm and single or multiple walls. The average penetration depth and probabilities to introduce an impurity atom into CNT were studied with simulations on irradiating the CNT with single K ion. The number of potassium clusters, their average sizes and the damage produced into the CNT due to the irradiation were studied using multiple K ion irradiations. We found that the K ions are mobile in CNTs right after the implantation event and that they cluster together. For CNTs with 1-3 coaxial tubes, the highest ratio of K atoms in clusters per total number of K ions was obtained by using an irradiation energy of about 100 eV. Also the least damage per K ion was found to be produced into the CNT with this energy when those energies high enough for the ion to penetrate the outermost wall of the CNT were considered.
