Tight- binding study of electronic band structure of anisotropic honeycomb lattice
The two-dimensional structure of graphene, consisting of an isotropic hexagonal lattice of carbon atoms, shows fascinating electronic properties, such as a gapless energy band and Dirac fermion behavior of electrons at fermi surface. Anisotropy can be induced in this structure by electrochemical pressure. In this article, by using tight-binding method, we review anisotropy effects in the elect...
متن کاملEdge-functionalized and substitutionally doped graphene nanoribbons: Electronic and spin properties
Graphene nanoribbons are the counterpart of carbon nanotubes in graphene-based nanoelectronics. We investigate the electronic properties of chemically modified ribbons by means of density functional theory. We observe that chemical modifications of zigzag ribbons can break the spin degeneracy. This promotes the onset of a semiconducting-metal transition, or of a half-semiconducting state, with ...

Submitted for the MAR09 Meeting of The American Physical Society Gap opening due to topological defects in graphene1 RICARDO NUNES, JOICE ARAÚJO, HELIO CHACHAM, UFMG Brazil — Stone-Wales defects (SWD = two adjacent pentagon-heptagon pairs) are common low-energy defects in carbon nanotubes. Previously, Crespi et al.[PRB, 53, 1996] have proposed a purely-carbon covalent metal sheet called “pentah...
متن کاملElectronic 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 کاملQuantum current modelling on tri-layer graphene nanoribbons in limit degenerate and non-degenerate
Graphene is determined by a wonderful carrier transport property and high sensitivityat the surface of a single molecule, making them great as resources used in Nano electronic use.TGN is modeled in form of three honeycomb lattices with pairs of in-equivalent sites as {A1, B1},{A2, B2}, and {A3, B3} which are located in the top, center and bottom layers, respectively. Trilayer...
