Armchair silicene nanoribbons with width of 9-39 silicon atoms are investigated by using self-consistent field crystal orbital method based on density functional theory. The carrier mobilities obtained from deformation potential theory…

It have been demonstrated that the zigzag honeycomb nanoribbons exhibit an intriguing edge magnetism. Here the effect of the anisotropy on the edge magnetism in zigzag honeycomb nanoribbons is investigated by using two kinds of large-scale…

In carbon nanotubes, the most abundant defects, caused for example by irradiation or chemisorption treatments, are small perturbing clusters, i.e. bi-site defects, extending over both A and B sites. The relative positions of these…

We study theoretically the electron transport in a 1D conductor adiabatically connected to a superconducting and normal metal leads. In the case of non-interacting we show that ac voltage applied along with dc voltage modifies I-V curve…

We have investigated electronic transport in graphene nanoribbon devices with additional bar-shaped extensions ("wings") at each side of the device. We find that the Coulomb-blockade dominated transport found in conventional ribbons is…

Systematic ab initio calculations show that the energy gap of boron nitride (BN) nanoribbons (BNNRs) with zigzag or armchair edges can be significantly reduced by a transverse electric field and completely closed at a critical field which…
