The mechanical integrity of composite materials depends primarily on the interface strength and the defect density of the reinforcement which is the provider of enhanced strength and stiffness. In the case of graphene/ polymer…
The hybrid graphene - hexagonal boron nitride (G-hBN) systems offer new routes in the design of nanoscale electronic devices. Using {\it ab initio} density functional theory calculations we investigate the dynamics of zig-zag nanoribbons a…
Mean-field theories have since long predicted edge magnetism in graphene nanoribbons, where the order parameter is given by the local magnetization. However, signatures of edge magnetism appears elusive in the experiments, suggesting…
It is suggested that the substitutional nitrogen in diamonds bonded to three of the surrounding carbon atoms instead of four. This proposed electron configuration of the defect is deduced from previous experiments and theoretical…
Insulating-metallic transition mediated by substitutional atoms is predicted in a series of two-dimensional carbon-based structures. Introducing Si atoms in selected sites of tetrahexcarbon [Carbon 137 (2018) 266] according to rational…
The electronic structure of nanocrystalline (nc-) TiC/amorphous C nanocomposites has been investigated by soft x-ray absorption and emission spectroscopy. The measured spectra at the Ti 2p and C 1s thresholds of the nanocomposites are…
In this paper, we apply the first-principle theory to explore how the electronic structures of armchair graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs) are affected by chemical modifications. The edge addends include H, F, N, NH$_{2}$, and NO$_{2}$. Our…
Bilayer graphene nanoribbon with zigzag edge is investigated with the tight binding model. Two stacking structures, alpha and beta, are considered. The band splitting is seen in the alpha structure, while the splitting in the wave number…
We investigate localization effects in zigzag graphene nanoribbons with quasiperiodic Fibonacci-type edge extensions, accounting for electron-electron interactions. We employ a tight-binding model that includes first- and…

We present theoretical simulations of the electronic properties of graphene-like two-dimensional (2D) carbon networks with a periodic arrangement of defect lines formed by alternating four- and eight-membered rings. These networks can be…
Fluorescent paramagnetic defects in solids have become attractive systems for quantum information processing in the recent years. One of the leading contenders is the negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy defect in diamond with visible…
Since advanced Silicon-based device components are moderately chemically tunable, doped graphene has emerged as a promising candidate to replace this semiconducting material in flexible miniaturized electronic devices. Indeed, heteroatom…
