Bi nanowires: Magnetism and the semimetal-to- semiconductor transition
Cantilever magnetometry experiments were performed on arrays of Bi nanowires of various diameters both on the semimetal and semiconductor side of the semimetal-tosemiconductor transition (SMSC) that is predicted to occur for diameters of approximately 50 nm. Our 270 nm nanowire samples, which are on the semimetal side of the SMSC transition, exhibit strong dHvA oscillations that can be interpre...
متن کاملSymmetry induced semimetal-semiconductor transition in doped graphene
Substitutional chemical doping is one way of introducing an electronic bandgap in otherwise semimetallic graphene. A small change in dopant arrangement can convert graphene from a semiconducting to a semimetallic state. Based on ab initio Density Functional Theory calculations, we discuss the electron structure of BN-doped graphene with Bravais and non-Bravais lattice-type defect patterns, iden...
متن کاملStructural semiconductor-to-semimetal phase transition in two-dimensional materials induced by electrostatic gating
Dynamic control of conductivity and optical properties via atomic structure changes is of technological importance in information storage. Energy consumption considerations provide a driving force towards employing thin materials in devices. Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are nearly atomically thin materials that can exist in multiple crystal structures, each with distinct electrica...
متن کاملInsulator to Semimetal Transition in Graphene Oxide
Transport properties of progressively reduced graphene oxide (GO) are described. Evolution of the electronic properties reveals that as-synthesized GO undergoes insulator-semiconductor-semimetal transitions with reduction. The apparent transport gap ranges from 10 to 50 meV and approaches zero with extensive reduction. Measurements at varying degrees of reduction reveal that transport in reduce...
متن کاملSemimetal-to-semimetal charge density wave transition in 1T-TiSe(2).
We report an infrared study on 1T-TiSe(2), the parent compound of the newly discovered superconductor Cu(x)TiSe(2). Previous studies of this compound have not conclusively resolved whether it is a semimetal or a semiconductor-information that is important in determining the origin of its unconventional charge density wave (CDW) transition. Here we present optical spectroscopy results that clear...
