The mechanical properties of black phosphorus (BP) are anisotropic. Correspondingly, the properties of the nanotubes formed by bending the same BP ribbon along different directions are different as well. When bending the ribbon along the [110] direction (i.e., stair direction), or along its perpendicular direction (i.e., ps-direction), s- or ps-BPNT can be obtained. The two types of BPNTs are investigated via molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on their thermal and mechanical properties. The results indicate that, for the thermal stability of the s-BPNTs with similar diameters, s-BPNT is weaker than a-BPNTs (armchair type) but stronger than ps-BPNT, and z-BPNT (zigzag type) is the weakest one. In general, a-BPNT has larger compressive or tensile strength, while s-BPNT and ps-BPNT can bear larger deformation. Under uniaxial compression, s-BPNT has two different breaking patterns at different temperatures. The peculiar properties illustrate the wider application of BPNTs in nanodevices under large deformation.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
