Initial Stage of Consolidation of Silicon-Carbide Nanocrystals under Pressure: A Tight-Binding Molecular-Dynamics Study
Figure 1
Initial configurations of the (a) aligned and (b) randomly oriented SiC nanocrystals. Large (yellow) and small (blue) spheres represent Si atom and C atom, respectively. Bonds are drawn for Si-C pairs within the distance less than 2.0 Å.
