Breaking the wire: the impact of critical length on melting pathways in silver nanowires
We explore the melting mechanisms of silver nanowires through molecular dynamics simulations and theoretical modelling, where we observe that two distinct mechanisms or pathways emerge that dictate how the solid-liquid interface melts during the phase transition. For wires longer than a critical len...
