The charge-carrier transport properties of ultrathin metallic films are analysed with ab-initio methods using the density functional theory (DFT) on free-standing single crystalline slabs in the thickness range between 1 and 8 monolayers…

The mobility of p-type nanowires (NWs) of diameters of D=12nm down to D=3nm, in [100], [110], and [111] transport orientations is calculated. An atomistic tight-binding model is used to calculate the NW electronic structure. Linearized…

The sp3d5s*-spin-orbit-coupled atomistic tight-binding (TB) model is used for the electronic structure calculation of Si nanowires (NWs), self consistently coupled to a 2D Poisson equation, solved in the cross section of the NW. Upon…

We report on systematic study of transport properties of a 1000-nm HgTe film. Unlike to thinner and strained HgTe films, which are known as high-quality three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators, the film under study is much thicker…

A simulation framework that couples atomistic electronic structures to Boltzmann transport formalism is developed and applied to calculate the transport characteristics of thin silicon nanowires (NWs) up to 12nm in diameter. The…

Solution-processable two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors with chemically tunable thickness and associated tunable band gaps are highly promising materials for ultrathin optoelectronics. Here, the properties of free charge carriers and…

A 20 band sp3d5s* spin-orbit-coupled, semi-empirical, atomistic tight-binding (TB) model is used with a semi-classical, ballistic, field-effect-transistor (FET) model, to theoretically examine the bandstructure carrier velocity and…

In ballistic transport, the movement of charged carriers is essentially unimpeded by scattering events. In this limit, microscopic parameters such as crystal momentum, spin and quantum phases are well conserved, allowing electrons to…
