Trapped modes in zigzag graphene nanoribbons
We study the scattering on an ultra-low potential in zigzag graphene nanoribbon. Using a mathematical framework based on the continuous Dirac model and the augmented scattering matrix, we derive a condition for the existence of a trapped mode. We consider the threshold energies where the continuous spectrum changes its multiplicity and show that the trapped modes may appear for energies slightl...
متن کاملMechanical properties of graphene nanoribbons.
Herein, we investigate the structural, electronic and mechanical properties of zigzag graphene nanoribbons in the presence of stress by applying density functional theory within the GGA-PBE (generalized gradient approximation-Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof) approximation. The uniaxial stress is applied along the periodic direction, allowing a unitary deformation in the range of ± 0.02%. The mechanical ...
متن کاملVibrational Tamm states at the edges of graphene nanoribbons
We study vibrational states localized at the edges of graphene nanoribbons. Such surface oscillations can be considered as a phonon analog of Tamm states in the electronic theory. We consider both armchair and zigzag graphene stripes and demonstrate that surface modes correspond to phonons localized at the edges of the graphene nanoribbon, and they can be classified as in-plane and out-of-plane...
متن کاملSpectral phonon thermal properties in graphene nanoribbons
This work provides a comprehensive investigation on the spectral phonon properties in graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) by the normal mode decomposition (NMD) method, considering the effects of edge chirality, width, and temperature. We find that the edge chirality has no significant effect on the phonon relaxation time but has a large influence to the phonon group velocity. As a result, the thermal ...
متن کاملElectromechanical properties of suspended graphene nanoribbons.
Graphene nanoribbons present diverse electronic properties ranging from semiconducting to half-metallic, depending on their geometry, dimensions, and chemical composition. Here we present a route to control these properties via externally applied mechanical deformations. Using state-of-the-art density functional theory calculations combined with classical elasticity theory considerations, we fi...
