Large anelasticity and associated energy dissipation in single-crystalline nanowires

Nature Nanotechnology, 10(8), 687–691.

By: G. Cheng n, C. Miao *, Q. Qin n, J. Li n, F. Xu n, H. Haftbaradaran *, E. Dickey n , H. Gao *, Y. Zhu n 

Contributors: G. Cheng n, C. Miao *, Q. Qin n, J. Li n, F. Xu n, H. Haftbaradaran *, E. Dickey n , H. Gao *, Y. Zhu n 

topics (OpenAlex): Nonlocal and gradient elasticity in micro/nano structures; Thermoelastic and Magnetoelastic Phenomena; Elasticity and Material Modeling
TL;DR: It is shown that single-crystalline ZnO and p-doped Si nanowires can exhibit anelastic behaviour that is up to four orders of magnitude larger than the largest anelastically observed in bulk materials, with a timescale on the order of minutes, suggesting that crystalline Nanowires with point defects are promising materials for energy damping applications.
