Simulations are carried out based on the Tersoff potential energy function within Nose-Hoover thermostat algorithm at the constant room temperature in a canonical ensemble. The influences of boron (B) doping on the mechanical properties, i.e. Young’s and bulk moduli and ultimate strength and strain of C2N-h2D single-layer sheets are studied and the effects of size and doping percentage on the aforementioned properties are explored.  The results demonstrate lower strength and stiffness of C2N-h2D single-layer sheets compared to graphene. It is also demonstrated that unlike the strength of C2N-h2D single-layer sheet, the stiffness of C2N-h2D single-layer sheet is larger than that of silicene nanosheet. In addition, it is observed that doping of B atoms on C2N-h2D single-layer sheets intensely reduces the mechanical properties, whereas this reduction increases by rising the percentage of B-doping. Furthermore, the fracture process of C2N-h2D and B-doped C2N-h2D single-layer sheets is illustrated.}, keywords = {C2N-h2D,Doping,Molecular Dynamics Simulations,Mechanical properties,Fracture}, url = {https://www.ijnnonline.net/article_34400.html}, eprint = {https://www.ijnnonline.net/article_34400_ff5bfdf1f68ff09140e6dff6d7c6bba5.pdf} }
