Nanoscale origin and evolution of kinetically induced defects in carbon spheres

Abstract: Synthesis of carbon nanostructures with controlled defect distribution holds tremendous promise in engineering novel materials for specific device applications and catalysis. Carbon spheres (CS) can be synthesized by controlled thermal pyrolysis of polyethylene (PE) via a series of self-generated pressure reactions. Here, we show that point defect distribution in these CS can be tailored by controlling the kinetics during this synthesis procedure. Using accelerated molecular dynamics, we demonstrate that cooli… Show more
