We evaluate the electron transmission through a dangling-bond wire on Si(100)-H (2x1). Finite wires are modelled by decoupling semi-infinite Si electrodes from the dangling-bond wire with passivating H atoms. The calculations are performed…

We evaluate the electronic, geometric and energetic properties of quasi 1-D wires formed by dangling bonds on Si(100)-H (2 x 1). The calculations are performed with density functional theory (DFT). Infinite wires are found to be insulating…

We consider the electronic transport properties of phosphorus (P) doped silicon nanowires (SiNWs). By combining ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations with a recursive Green's function method, we calculate the conductance…

Short dangling bond wires (DB wires), fabricated on H-terminated Si(001) surfaces, show patterns of displacement that depend on their length. We have performed density function calculations, with and without spin-polarisation, designed to…

From electronic structure calculations, we find that carriers injected into dangling-bond atomic wires on the Si(001) surface will self-trap to form localised polaron states. The self-trapping distortion takes the form of a local…

Spin transport electronics - spintronics - focuses on utilizing electron spin as a state variable for quantum and classical information processing and storage. Some insulating materials, such as diamond, offer defect centers whose…

Dangling bond wires on Si(001) are prototypical one dimensional wires, which are expected to show polaronic and solitonic effects. We present electronic structure calculations, using the tight binding model, of solitons in dangling-bond…
