We describe a novel strategy for stabilizing the long-elusive, condensed-state materials consisting of sp carbon chains. High-level ab initio calculations indicate that covalent …
The main contribution of this paper is to study the spin caloritronic effects in defected graphene/silicene nanoribbon (GSNR) junctions. Each step-like GSNR is subjected to the …
In this study, based on density functional theory, we propose a new branch of pseudo- fullerenes which contain triple bonds with sp hybridization. We call these new …
In this paper, we study the structural, electronic, and quantum transport properties in the smallest fullerene, C 20, and the most famous fullerene, C 60, and their corresponding …
The spin-dependent Seebeck effect (SDSE) and thermal spin-filtering effect (SFE) are now considered as the essential aspects of the spin caloritronics, which can efficiently explore …
In a previous work, we introduced a new family of carbon cages, called fullerynes. Besides, we studied their stability by examining the vibrations of the infrared spectrum. But in this …
In this paper, we introduce new features of silicon in fullerane structures. Silicon, when placed in a fullerane structure, increases its electron affinity and electrophilicity index …
The shortcomings of mono-component systems eg the gapless nature of graphene, the lack of air-stability in phosphorene, etc, have drawn great attention toward stacked materials that …
