Elastic and Electronic Properties of Point Defects in Titanium Carbide

investigation of the electronic properties of carbon and iii-v nanotubes

boron nitride semiconducting zigzag swcnt, $b_{cb}$$n_{cn}$$c_{1-cb-cn}$, as a potential candidate for making nanoelectronic devices was examined. in contrast to the previous dft calculations, wherein just one boron and nitrogen doping configuration have been considered, here for the average over all possible configurations, density of states (dos) was calculated in terms of boron and nitrogen ...

Anisotropic electronic conduction in stacked two-dimensional titanium carbide

Stacked two-dimensional titanium carbide is an emerging conductive material for electrochemical energy storage which requires an understanding of the intrinsic electronic conduction. Here we report the electronic conduction properties of stacked Ti3C2T2 (T = OH, O, F) with two distinct stacking sequences (Bernal and simple hexagonal). On the basis of first-principles calculations and energy ban...

Synthesis and field emission properties of titanium carbide nanowires

Single crystalline TiC nanowires have been synthesized through a chloride-assisted carbothermal reduction process using active carbon, TiO2 and NaCl powders as precursors and carbon-coated cobalt or nickel nanoparticles as a catalyst. The products were characterized by x-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The TiC nano...
