With the help of the recently developed SIESTA-PEXSI method [J. Phys.: Condens. Matter \textbf{26}, 305503 (2014)], we perform Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) calculations to study the stability and electronic structure of…

The electronic properties of graphene nano-flakes (GNFs) with different edge passivation is investigated by using density functional theory. Passivation with F and H atoms are considered: C$_{N_c}$ X$_{N_x}$ (X=F or H). We studied GNFs with…

We present exemplary results of extensive studies of mechanical, electronic and transport properties of covalent functionalization of graphene monolayers (GML) with -NH2. We report new results of ab initio studies of covalent…

We determine the stability, the geometry, the electronic and magnetic structure of hydrogen-terminated graphene-nanoribbons edges as a function of the hydrogen content of the environment by means of density functional theory.…

Finite graphene nanoribbon (GNR) heterostructures host intriguing topological in-gap states (Rizzo, D. J. et al.~\textit{Nature} \textbf{2018}, \textit{560}, 204]). These states may be localized either at the bulk edges, or at the ends of…

Systematic tight-binding investigations of the electronic spectra (as a function of the magnetic field) are presented for trigonal graphene nanoflakes with reconstructed zigzag edges, where a succession of pentagons and heptagons, that is…

In view of a formal topology, two common terms, namely, connectivity and adjacency, determine the quality of C-C bonds of sp2 nanocarbons. The feature is the most sensitive point of the inherent topology of the species so that such external…

The stability of graphene nanoribbons in the presence of typical atmospheric molecules is systematically investigated by means of density functional theory. We calculate the edge formation free energy of five different edge configurations…

By bridging graphene and benzene through a well-defined sequence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their inherent shell structure, J. Phys. Chem. C, 2018, 122, 17526, it is shown that graphene is actually a coherent arrangement of…

We have measured the mechanical properties of few-layer graphene and graphite flakes that are suspended over circular holes. The spatial profile of the flake's spring constant is measured with an atomic force microscope. The bending…

Properties of bulk and boundaries of materials can, in general, be quite different, both for topological and non-topological reasons. One of the simplest boundary problems to pose is the tight-binding problem of noninteracting electrons on…

The structure stability and electronic properties of edge carboxylated hexagonal and triangular graphene quantum dots are investigated by using density functional theory. The calculated binding energies show that the hexagonal clusters with…

The effects of edge covalent functionalization on the structural, electronic and optical properties of elongated armchair graphene nanoflakes (AGNFs) are analyzed in detail for a wide range of terminations, within the ramework of…

Based on first-principles calculations we predict that periodically repeated junctions of armchair graphene nanoribbons of different widths form superlattice structures. In these superlattice heterostructures the width and the energy gap…

Novel physical phenomena emerge in ultra-small sized nanomaterials. We study the limiting small-size-dependent properties of MoS$_{2}$ monolayer rhombic nanoflakes using density-functional theory on structures of size up to…

It is known that there is a wide class of quasi-two-dimensional graphenelike nanomaterials which in many respects can outperform graphene. So, here in addition to graphene, the attention is directed to stanene (buckled honeycomb structure)…

Two-dimensional alloys of carbon and nitrogen represent an urgent interest due to prospective applications in nanomechanical and optoelectronic devices. Stability of these chemical structures must be understood as a function of their…

Graphdiynes (GDYs) as two-dimensional carbon structures based on sp2 hybridized aromatic rings connected by sp-hybridized acetylenic linear links are gathering an increasing popularity, both for their peculiar properties and for the…

We investigate the energy band structure and energy levels of a heterojunction composed of two antiferromagnetic graphene nanoflakes with opposite in-plane antiferromagnetic orderings, in which the modified Kane-Mele model is employed.…

Results of classical force field geometry optimizations for twisted graphene nanoribbons with a number of twists $N_t$ varying from 0 to 7 (the case $N_t$=1 corresponds to a half-twist M\"obius nanoribbon) are presented in this work. Their…
