Effect of Strain on Electronic Transport in Silicene Nanoribbon using Tight Binding Model

Shukla A., Junghare R.C., Patil G.C., Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology Nagpur, IN

In this paper, we investigate the effect of strain on silicene nanoribbon by using tight binding model.Using appropriate models for silicene, we apply a variable strain to Silicene nanoribbon and analyzed the impact of strain [...]

Structure determination of silicene nanoribbons on Ag(110)

Espeter P., Keutner C., Kleimeier N.F., Roese P., Shamout K., Wenzel G., Berges U., Zacharias H., Westphal C., TU Dortmund, DE

Since the discovery of graphene much interest came up in the graphene analoga from the carbon group. One of the most famous representatives is silicene. Silicene is known to crystallize in different configurations, depending on [...]

Arsenene Substrates Enable a New Era of High-Performance Semiconductors

Zavitz D., Kubricky J., CSI2D, US

Chicago Semiconductor achieved a breakthrough in fabricating two-dimensional layers of Arsenene and Silicene. This was realized for uniform deposition of Arsenic-on-Silicon(112) and Silicene on Silicon (112). The key to stable and uniform Arsenene-on-Silicon (AeOS) and [...]
