A recent breakthrough has been achieved by synthesizing monolayer amorphous carbon (MAC), which introduces a material with unique optoelectronic properties. Here, we used ab initio (DFT) molecular dynamics simulations to study silicon and…
Recently (C.-T. Toh et al., Nature 577, 199 (2020)), the first synthesis of free-standing monolayer amorphous carbon (MAC) was achieved. MAC is a pure carbon structure composed of five, six, seven and eight atom rings randomly distributed.…
Recently, laser-assisted chemical vapor deposition was used to synthesize a free-standing, continuous, and stable monolayer amorphous carbon (MAC). MAC is a pure carbon structure composed of randomly distributed five, six, seven, and eight…
The microstructure, electronic structure, and chemical bonding of chromium carbide thin films with different carbon contents have been investigated with high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy and…
Bulk amorphous materials have been studied extensively and are widely used, yet their atomic arrangement remains an open issue. Although they are generally believed to be Zachariasen continuous random networks, recent experimental evidence…
In this review, we present our recent computational work on carbon-based nanostructured composites. These materials consist of carbon crystallites embedded in an amorphous carbon matrix and are modeled here through classical and…
Carbon nanosheets are mechanically stable free-standing two-dimensional materials with a thickness of ~1 nm and well defined physical and chemical properties. They are made by radiation induced cross-linking of aromatic self-assembled…
A suspended carbon nanotube can act as a nanoscale resonator with remarkable electromechanical properties and the ability to detect adsorption on its surface at the level of single atoms. Understanding adsorption on nanotubes and other…
The recent synthesis of nitrogen-doped monolayer amorphous carbon (MAC @N) opens new possibilities for multifunctional materials. In this study, we have investigated the nitrogen doping limits and their effects on MAC@N's structural and…
In molecular electronic conduction, exotic lattice morphologies often give rise to exotic behaviors. Among 2D systems, graphene is a notable example. Recently, a stable amorphous version of graphene called Monolayer Amorphous Carbon (MAC)…
Amorphous solids represent the extreme limit of broken translational symmetry, in which the absence of long-range order removes well-defined crystal momenta and invalidates the Bloch description of electronic states. Monolayer amorphous…
Optical-absorption cross-sections and energy-loss spectra of aligned multishell carbon nanotubes are investigated, on the basis of photonic band-structure calculations. A local graphite-like dielectric tensor is assigned to every point of…
A single-walled carbon nanotube presents a seamless cylindrical graphene surface and is thus an ideal adsorption substrate for investigating the physics of atoms and molecules in two dimensions and approaching the one-dimensional limit.…
The optical absorption spectrum of the carbon (4,2) nanotube is computed using an ab-initio many-body approach which takes into account excitonic effects. We develop a new method involving a local basis set which is symmetric with respect…
Atomic models of quasi-one-dimensional 1D vanadium oxide nanostructures - nanotubes of various morphology (cylinder or scroll-like) formed by rolling (010) single layers of V2O5 are constructed and their electronic properties are studied…
We present results for the optical absorption spectra of small-diameter single-wall carbon and boron nitride nanotubes obtained by {\it ab initio} calculations in the framework of time-dependent density functional theory. We compare the…

The structures of long-range ordered physisorbed monolayer on a carbon nanotube are examined. Geometrical and energetical constraints determining the order of such monolayers are discussed. A number of symmetrically different, strongly…
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a one-dimensional material system with intriguing physical properties that lead to emerging applications. While CNTs are unusually strain resistant compared to bulk materials, their optical-absorption spectrum is…
Amorphous materials exhibit various characteristics that are not featured by crystals and can sometimes be tuned by their degree of disorder (DOD). Here, we report results on the mechanical properties of monolayer amorphous carbon (MAC) and…
