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…

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…

Injecting charge into dangling bond wires on Si(001) has been shown to induce polarons, which are weakly coupled to the underlying bulk phonons. We present elevated temperature tight binding molecular dynamics simulations designed to obtain…

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…

Bare silicon dimers on hydrogen-terminated Si(100) have two dangling bonds. These are atomically localized regions of high state density near to and within the bulk silicon band gap. We studied bare silicon dimers as monomeric units.…

We report an ab initio study of the electronic properties of surface dangling-bond (SDB) states in hydrogen-terminated Si and Ge nanowires with diameters between 1 and 2 nm, Ge/Si nanowire heterostructures, and Si and Ge (111) surfaces. We…

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…

The self-assembly of submonolayer amounts of Au on the densely stepped Si(553) surface creates an array of closely spaced \atomic wires" separated by 1.5 nm. At low temperature, charge transfer between the terraces and the row of silicon…

New advances in single-atom manipulation are leading to the creation of atomic structures on H passivated Si surfaces with functionalities important for the development of atomic and molecular based technologies. We perform total-energy and…

Electronic structure calculations for atomic wire of metals like Al, Ga and In are performed for a patterned dihydrogeneted Si(001):1 $\times$ 1 in search of structures with metallic behavior. The dihydrogeneted Si(001) is patterned by…

We investigated phase defects in a quasi-one-dimensional commensurate charge density wave (CDW) system, an In atomic wire array on Si(111), using low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. The unique four-fold degeneracy of the CDW…

We use ab initio density functional calculations to study the effect of electron and hole doping on the equilibrium geometry and electronic structure of C, Si, and S monatomic wires. Independent of doping, all these nanowires are found to…

We theoretically study the electronic band structure of isolated unpaired and paired dangling bonds (DB), DB wires and DB clusters on H:Si(100)-(2$\times$1) surface using Extended H\"uckel Theory (EHT) and report their effect on the Si band…

We present the first numerically exact study of self-trapped, a.k.a. soliton, states of electrons that form in materials with strong quadratic coupling to the phonon coordinates. Previous studies failed to observe predictions based on the…

We have theoretically investigated the electronic properties of neutral and $n$-doped dangling bond (DB) quasi-one-dimensional structures (lines) in the Si(001):H and Ge(001):H substrates with the aim of identifying atomic-scale…

In one-dimensional (1D) metallic systems, the diverging electron susceptibility and electron-phonon coupling collaboratively drive the electrons into a charge density wave (CDW) state. However, strictly 1D system is unstable against…

Si dangling bonds without H termination at the interface of quasi-free standing monolayer graphene (QFMLG) are known scattering centers that can severely affect carrier mobility. In this report, we study the atomic and electronic structure…

We study one-electron tunneling through atomic-scale one-dimensional wires in the presence of coherent electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling. We use a full quantum model for the e-ph interaction within the wire with open boundary conditions. We…

We performed an extensive first-principles study of nanowires in various pentagonal structures by using pseudopotential plane wave method within the density functional theory. Our results show that nanowires of different types of elements,…

The stability and electronic structure of a single monatomic Al wire has been studied using the ab initio pseudopotential method. The Al wire undergoes two structural rearrangements under compression, i.e., zigzag configurations at angles…
