Abstract:Nanoporous metals demonstrate significant
potential in a variety
of innovative structures and functional domains, but their limited
macroscopic plasticity hinders their industrial application. In this
work, we constructed a core–shell structure by modifying nanoporous
gold (NP-Au) with Pt atoms and investigated its mechanical response
via molecular dynamics simulations. The results showed that the introduction
of the Pt shell layer to form a core–shell structure effectively
enhances the plasticity of NP-Au. Sp… Show more
