We study the electromechanical response of Janus transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) nanotubes from first principles. In particular, considering both armchair and zigzag variants of twenty-seven select Janus TMD nanotubes, we determine…

The formation and electronic properties of nitrogen-related defect complexes in $\beta-Ga_2O_3$ are investigated using first-principles calculations. Starting from the energetically favorable $N_{i9}-N_{OI}$ configuration, nitrogen atoms…

Over the last decade, progress in wide bandgap, III-V materials systems based on gallium nitride (GaN) has been a major driver in the realization of high power and high frequency electronic devices. Since the highly conductive,…

The effects of partial hydrogenation on the structure and electronic properties of boron nitride nanotubes are investigated via density functional theory calculations. We find that the structure of the nanotube may considerably deform…

Alloy scattering in random AlGaN alloys drastically reduces the electron mobility and therefore the power-electronics figure of merit. As a result, Al compositions greater than 75% are required to obtain even a two-fold increase of the…

First-principles calculations of substitutional defects and vacancies are performed for zigzag-edged hybrid C/BN nanosheets and nanotubes which recently have been proposed to exhibit half-metallic properties. The formation energies show…

We use realistic pseudopotentials and a plane-wave basis to study the electronic structure of non-periodic, three-dimensional, 2000-atom (AlAs)_n/(GaAs)_m (001) superlattices, where the individual layer thicknesses n,m = {1,2,3} are…

Gallium nitride (GaN) has emerged as an essential semiconductor material for energy-efficient lighting and electronic applications owing to its large direct bandgap of 3.4 eV. Present GaN/AlGaN heterostructures seemingly feature an…

Successful synthesis of the nitrogenated holey two-dimensional structures C2N (Nat. Commun. 2015, 6, 1-7) using simply wet-chemical reaction offer a cost-effective way to generate other 2D materials with novel optical and electronic…

In this work we present a comparison of multiband k.p-models, the effective bond-orbital approach, and an empirical tight-binding model to calculate the electronic structure for the example of a truncated pyramidal GaN/AlN self-assembled…

We studied orientation dependent transport in vicinal N-polar AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. We observed significant anisotropy in the current carrying charge parallel and perpendicular to the miscut direction. A quantitative estimate of the…

The polarization discontinuity across interfaces in polar nitride-based heterostructures can lead to the formation of two-dimensional electron and hole gases. In the past, the observation of these electron and hole gases has been achieved…
