Electronic and transport properties of boron-doped graphene nanoribbons.

TL;DR: It is found that the electronic scattering process is spin-anisotropic; namely, the spin-down (up) transmittance channels are weakly (strongly) reduced by the presence of boron atoms, which can be controlled by the width of the nanoribbon.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electronic, structural, and transport properties of Ni-doped graphene nanoribbons

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the electronic and transport properties of zigzag Ni-adsorbed graphene nanoribbons (Ni/GNRs) using ab initio calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI

σ- and π-Defects at Graphene Nanoribbon Edges: Building Spin Filters

TL;DR: Using an approach based on density functional theory and nonequilibrium Green's function formalism to calculate the transmittance, defects in monohydrogenated zigzag graphene nanoribbons are classified depending on their distinct transport properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Directional dependence of the electronic and transport properties of 2D borophene and borophane

TL;DR: It is found that borophene presents an electronic current two orders of magnitude larger than borophane, and the direction dependence of the electronic current in two perpendicular directions, namely, Ix and Iy is verified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrogen adsorption on boron doped graphene: an ab initio study.

TL;DR: In this paper, the structural properties of boron doped B1-B2 graphene sheets have been examined by ab initio total energy calculations and it was shown that the structural deformations are localized around the borons substitutional sites, and there is an increase of the electronic density of states near the Fermi level.
