Twin boundaries exist in bulk metals, and they are even more common in metallic nanomaterials. Molecular simulation has made it possible to achieve a predictive understanding of the atomic mechanisms leading to the enhanced properties of nano-twinned metals. Taking nanowires as prototypes, this paper presents an atomistic view of twin structure and its important role in synthesis and in mechanical deformation.
