摘要: Abstract Diverse nanowires (NWs) activating the self-scrolling of planar graphene (GN) nanoribbons have been studied by using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Once NWs’ radiuses reach a threshold, all seven NWs, acting as an external force, can initiate conformational change GN nanoribbons, and finally form core/shell composite NWs. Our simulation found that van der Waals (vdW) force plays important role in process forming This preparation method NWs will open further development broad new class metal/GN with enhanced properties. And these structures be building blocks functional nanodevices unique mechanical, electrical, or optical
