摘要
Plastic bending of single-wall carbon nanotubes is analyzed using minimum energy path calculation with a bond-order potential. The calculation demonstrates that plastic deformation is only thermodynamically favorable above a threshold "yield curvature" rho(yield), and is kinetically feasible above 1500 K, which agree with our experimental observations. A deformation mechanism map as function of temperature and bending curvature is constructed, and the dependence of rho(yield) on the nanotube diameter is analyzed.
