The electronic properties of boron-nitride nanoribbons (BNNRs) doped with a line of carbon atoms are investigated by using density functional calculations. Three different configurations are possible: the carbon atoms may replace a line of…
Two-dimensional dilute magnetic semiconductors can provide fundamental insights in the very nature of magnetic orders and their manipulation through electron and hole doping. Despite the fundamental physics, due to the large charge density…
The pinning properties of type-II superconductors can be efficiently controlled by using laterally nanostructured ferromagnet / superconductor bilayers. This will be illustrated by studying the flux pinning in thin superconducting Pb films…
A reentrant temperature dependence of the thermoresistivity $\rho_{\mathrm{xx}}(T)$ between an onset local superconducting ordering temperature $T_\mathrm{loc}^\mathrm{onset}$ and a global superconducting transition at…
The electrical conductivity of metallic carbon nanotubes (CNTs) quickly saturates with respect to bias voltage due to scattering from a large population of optical phonons. Decay of these dominant scatterers in pristine CNTs is too slow to…
We carried out room-temperature far-infrared (40--650~cm$^{-1}$) transmission measurements on undoped and bromine-doped powder samples of carbon nanofibers in stacked-cup cone geometry. The transmission spectra of both doped and undoped…
We investigated a suspended bilayer graphene where the bottom (top) layer is doped by boron (nitrogen) substitutional atoms by using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. We found that at high dopant concentration (one B-N pair…
Using first-principles density functional theory calculations, we investigate the geometries, electronic structures, and thermodynamic stabilities of substitutionally doped phosphorene sheets with group III, IV, V, and VI elements. We find…
We explore the possibility and potential benefit of rolling a Si2BN sheet into single-walled nanotubes (NTs). Using density functional theory (DFT), we consider both structural stability and the impact on the nature of chemical bonding and…
One notable manifestation of the peculiar edge-localized states in zigzag graphene nanoribbons (zGNRs) is the p-type (n-type) characteristics of nitrogen (boron) edge-doped GNRs, and such behavior was so far considered to be exclusive for…
Nanoparticle-based fluorescent sensors have emerged as a competitive alternative to small molecule sensors, due to their excellent fluorescence-based sensing capabilities. The tailorability of design, architecture, and photophysical…
First principles calculations based on density functional theory reveal some unusual properties of BN sheet functionalized with hydrogen and fluorine. These properties differ from those of similarly functionalized graphene even though both…
We have performed experiments on single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) networks and compared with density-functional theory (DFT) calculations to identify the microscopic origin of the observed sensitivity of the network conductivity to…
We present a first-principles study of the electronic transport properties of micrometer long semiconducting CNTs randomly covered with carbene functional groups. Whereas prior studies suggested that metallic tubes are hardly affected by…
There is a strong interest to attach nanoparticles non-covalently to one-dimensional systems like boron nitride nanotubes to form composites. The combination of those materials might be used for catalysis, in solar cells, or for water…
Transition-metal substitution in Fe pnictides leading to superconductivity is usually interpreted in terms of carrier doping to the system. We report on a density functional calculation of the local substitute electron density and…
In this work we have employed density-functional theory with hybrid functionals to investigate the atomic and electronic structure of bare and hydrogenated Mn doped ZnO nanowires with small diameter. We determine changes in magnetic and…
We report wide-range optical investigations on transparent conducting networks made from separated (semiconducting, metallic) and reference (mixed) single-walled carbon nanotubes, complemented by transport measurements. Comparing the…
In this work we aim at understanding the effect of n-type and p-type substitutional doping in the case of matrix-embedded and freestanding Si nanocrystals. By means of ab-initio calculations we identify the preferential positioning of the…
We use neutron scattering to study the structural distortion and antiferromagnetic (AFM) order in LaFeAsO$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$ as the system is doped with fluorine (F) to induce superconductivity. In the undoped state, LaFeAsO exhibits a…
