Atomic_Force and I-V of a big metal "nanowire"
« on: November 28, 2009, 13:58 »
Dear, I  have a similar question :

We want to get the Atomic_Force and I-V of a big metal "nanowire" ,for example the Cu (3*2*11) --- like the attach _1A. My questrion is : Can ATK.SE could deal with this situation ?
If so, which kind of electrod I should use ? Setting part of the 'wire' as the electrode, like the attach_1B or attch_2, or setting some other electrode, like Au(6*6) or attach_1C ?

thank you.

Please avoid reusing old topics, even if the question is similar.

Yes, ATK can certainly deal with a Cu nanowire. 3x2 in the plane perpendicular to the transport direction is not that big.

As for the electrodes, there is no answer to the questions, because the two cases correspond to entirely different systems. Choose the one you are interested in! :)
