“…In the widest SWCN (18,18), however, crystallization was not observed within the timescale of simulation. In the narrower SWCNs (14,14) and (15,15), the potential energy also drops markedly on cooling below 300 K, but the change is not as sharp as in the wider nanotubes. Structural analysis shows that confined water has liquid-like disordered structure at high T but turns into solid-like ordered structure at low T-a square nanotube in (14,14) and a pentagonal nanotube in (15,15) In real-world experiments, the atomic structures of Q1D crystals can be determined by using transmission electron microscopy.…”
