Sensing sulfur-containing gases using titanium and tin decorated zigzag graphene nanoribbons from first-principles.
Atom implantation in graphene or graphene nanoribbons offers a rich opportunity to tune the material structure and functional properties. In this study, zigzag graphene nanoribbons with Ti or Sn adatoms stabilised on a double carbon vacancy site are theoretically studied to investigate their sensitivity to sulfur-containing gases (H2S and SO2). Due to the abundance of oxygen in the atmosphere, ...
متن کاملHeterospin Junctions in Zigzag-Edged Graphene Nanoribbons
We propose a graphene nanoribbon-based heterojunction, where a defect-free interface separates two zigzag graphene nanoribbons prepared in opposite antiferromagnetic spin configurations. This heterospin junction is found to allow the redirecting of low-energy electrons from one edge to the other. The basic scattering mechanisms and their relation to the system’s geometry are investigated throug...
متن کاملTransport Gap Engineering in Zigzag Graphene Nanoribbons
Graphene, a recently discovered form of carbon, has received much attention over the past few years due to its excellent electrical, optical, and thermal properties [1]. With an extraordinary carrier mobility and high current density [2], graphene's application in electronic devices is promising. As a zero bandgap material, pristine graphene cannot be used as a semi-conducting channel in transi...
متن کاملTrapped modes in zigzag graphene nanoribbons
We study the scattering on an ultra-low potential in zigzag graphene nanoribbon. Using a mathematical framework based on the continuous Dirac model and the augmented scattering matrix, we derive a condition for the existence of a trapped mode. We consider the threshold energies where the continuous spectrum changes its multiplicity and show that the trapped modes may appear for energies slightl...
