Due to the excellent thermal conductivity of viscoelastic SWCNTs, it is very meaningful to study the influence of size-dependent effect on thermoelastic wave propagation properties in viscoelastic SWCNTs under thermal environment. Nevertheless, few theoretical investigations have been carried out to predict the thermoelastic wave propagation properties of viscoelastic SWCNTs in the existing literatures. To fill this gap, the present work aims to establish the thermoelastic coupling model for viscoelastic SWCNTs based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory by combining the nonlocal elasticity theory and the G-N theory, taking the surface effect into account. By assuming the wave type solutions, the dispersion relationship between frequency (or phase velocity) and wave number is determined. The influences of the nonlocal parameter, the surface effect and the damping coefficient on the thermoelastic wave dispersion relation of viscoelastic SWCNTs at two different diameters are examined and the thermoelastic wave propagation properties are presented graphically.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20181,"journal":{"name":"Physica E-low-dimensional Systems & Nanostructures","volume":"163 ","pages":"Article 116038"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141541627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, we use molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the structures and dynamics of bulk water under the influence of terahertz electric fields. The result indicates that the diffusion coefficient of water decreases almost linearly with the increase in field frequency, because the water molecules have to adjust their dipole orientation intensively at high field frequency, which impedes the water motion. Additionally, for a small field frequency the diffusion coefficient is not sensitive to the change in field strength; while at high frequencies it displays an interesting minimum behavior. The minimum translational diffusion coefficient is about one fourth of natural diffusion, suggesting a freezing state of water molecules. In addition, almost the same trend can be seen in the rotational diffusion coefficient. Subsequent analyses of the hydrogen bond number support the behaviors of diffusion coefficient, revealing the two ways that the terahertz electric fields affect the bulk water: clustering and oscillation. Then, we reveal the structural changes of water under terahertz electric field through radial distribution function (RDF), potential of mean force (PMF) and dipole angle, which show the sensitivity to the field frequency and strength. These findings demonstrate that the terahertz electric field is an effective method to modulate the structures and dynamics of water, providing significant new physical insights.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20181,"journal":{"name":"Physica E-low-dimensional Systems & Nanostructures","volume":"163 ","pages":"Article 116037"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141482643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
