Abstract In the production of semiconductor nano-scale heterogeneous structures great progress has been made mainly in manufacturing null-dimensional (quantum points), one-dimensional (quantum wires), and two-dimensional (quantum films) nano-structures. However, there exist certain technological difficulties in producing three-dimensional semiconductor nano-structures. Researchers at the Institute of Semiconductor Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences have proposed a concept of technology for fabricating micro- and nanotubes whose properties are modulated in nano-scale. This concept is based on the possibility of high-stressed two-layered plates to roll oneself (spontaneously) into a tube when being removed from the substrate by means of etching.

This work is an attempt to model the dynamics of the process of rolling of a high-stressed two-layered plate into a nanotube. To that end, we utilize with methods of classical mechanics based on Lagrange's equations for systems with unilateral constraints. The solution obtained is used for characterizing the dependence of the diameter of the tube on the layer parameters. Within the framework of this model, the process of separation of the double layer from its base is regarded as a fracture process initiated by weakened bonds between the stressed double layer and the base.
