Computer simulation of field-controlled percolation in 3D system of straight nanotubes

摘要

Analysis of percolation phenomenon in the system of straight nanotubes is carried out and an appropriate model of the process is proposed. An algorithm for finding the probability of nanotubes percolation is implemented using three-dimensional graphics visualization tools. The effect of geometric size and concentration of the nanotubes on the percolation probability was investigated. Based on the analysis of the dependence of percolation probability on the values of the dispersion angles determining the nanotubes orientation, the basic regularities of the conductive cluster formation under the influence of an electric field are established. The optimal parameters of the nanotube system with field-controlled percolation were determined.
