Molecular Dynamics Simulations of the Roller Nanoimprint Process: Adhesion and Other Mechanical Characteristics

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Molecular dynamics simulations using tight-binding many body potential are carried out to study the roller imprint process of a gold single crystal. The effect of the roller tooth&#8217;s taper angle, imprint depth, imprint temperature, and imprint direction...
