We report the conductance calculation of metallic nanowires of different metals under the application of a tensile force. The elongation induced by the tensile force was simulated by means of the canonical Monte Carlo method combined with the embedded atom method to compute the energy of the system. We studied nanowires composed of Ag, Au, Pt and Cu. The conductance was calculated by means of the Landauer formula and the non-equilibrium Green function formalism.

We report the conductance calculation of metallic nanowires of different metals under the application of a tensile force. The elongation induced by the tensile force was simulated by means of the canonical Monte Carlo method combined with the embedded atom method to compute the energy of the system. We studied nanowires composed of Ag, Au, Pt and Cu. The conductance was calculated by means of the Landauer formula and the non-equilibrium Green function formalism. As previously verified experimentally and using other simulation techniques, the conductance is quantized. In addition to this, we have found that there is a strong correlation between the magnitude of the conductance and the width of the nanowire at its thinnest point. Conductance histograms were analyzed for all the different metals.
