Hexagonal boron nitride sheets have been noted especially for their enhanced properties as substrates for sp2 carbon-based nanodevices. To evaluate whether such enhanced properties would remain under various realistic conditions, we…

Edge-induced gap states in finite phosphorene layers are examined using analytical models and density functional theory. The nature of such gap states depends on the direction of the cut. Armchair nanoribbons are insulating, whereas…

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…
