摘要: The tensile behavior of amorphous layer coated SiC nanowires was investigated using molecular dynamics with Tersoff potential at room temperature. Simulation results show that the coating leads to decrease critical stress and Young's modulus, but does not affect fracture mode large diameter thin layer. modulus can be attributed weakening Si–C bonds in layers.
