The thermal stabilities of silver nanowires(AgNWs)with the radius ranging from 1.6 to 20 nm were investigated by molecular dynamics(MD)simulations during the temperature elevation process from 0 to 1500 K.The penta-twinned structures of AgNWs were established on the basis of the experimental observation [1].For evaluating the reliability of potential functions(embedded-atom potentials and 2nn-modified embedded-atom potentials)on the thermal stability,two-phase method [2] was first used to get the melting point of bulk Ag,and the simulation results indicate the 2nn-modified embedded-atom(MEAM-2nn [3])potential is the best one to reflect the thermal behavior of bulk Ag.For mechanical properties,the predicted elastic constants(C11,C22,and C44)by the MEAM-2nn potential are also close to the corresponding experimental values.By using the MEAM-2nn potential,the size effect on the thermal properties of AgNWs was investigated.In the range of size-effect,the melting point of AgNWs dropped with the size of nanowires decreased.
