Electronic properties of hydrogenated porous Graphene based nanoribbons: A density functional theory study
The structural and electronic properties of the hydrogenated porous graphene nanoribbons were studied by using density functional theory calculations. The results show that the hydrogenated porous graphene nanoribbons are energetically stable. The effects of ribbon type and ribbon width on the electronic properties of these nanoribbons were investigated. It was found that both armchair and zigz...
متن کاملDensity functional investigations of defect induced mid-gap states in graphane
We have carried out ab initio electronic structure calculations on graphane (hydrogenated graphene) with single and double vacancy defects. Our analysis of the density of states reveal that such vacancies induce the mid gap states and modify the band gap. The induced states are due to the unpaired electrons on carbon atoms. Interestingly the placement and the number of such states is found to b...
متن کاملElectronic Transmission Wave Function of Disordered Graphene by Direct Method and Green's Function Method
We describe how to obtain electronic transport properties of disordered graphene, including the tight binding model and nearest neighbor hopping. We present a new method for computing, electronic transport wave function and Greens function of the disordered Graphene. In this method, based on the small rectangular approximation, break up the potential barriers in to small parts. Then using the f...
متن کاملEnergy gap of Kronig-Penney-type hydrogenated graphene superlattices
The electronic structure of graphene-graphane superlattices with armchair interfaces is investigated with first-principles density-functional theory. By separately varying the widths, we find that the energy gap Eg is inversely proportional to the width of the graphene strip and that the gap increases as the hydrogenated strip becomes wider due to the enhanced confinement effect. It is further ...
متن کاملWave packet dynamics in hydrogenated graphene at low hydrogen coverages.
The dynamics of an electron's wave packet on hydrogenated graphene at low hydrogen coverages has been simulated using the tight-binding model. It is found that the bonding between the hydrogen and carbon atoms induces an impurity electron state at an energy of ≈ 0.14 eV above the Dirac crossing energy ED, at which the impurity's scattering of electrons is resonantly enhanced. The asymmetry foun...
