Phonon Transport in Amorphous-Coated Nanowires: an Atomistic Green Function Approach
N. Mingo, Liu Yang
An approach is presented for the atomistic study of phonon transport in real dielectric nanowires via Green functions. The formalism is applied to investigate the phonon flow throu…
Resonant versus anti-resonant tunneling at carbon nanotube A-B-A heterostructures
N. Mingo, Liu Yang, Jie Han +1
Narrow antiresonances going to zero transmission are found to occur for general (2n,0)(n,n)(2n,0) carbon nanotube heterostructures, whereas the complementary configuration, (n,n)(2…
Current induced forces upon atoms adsorbed on conducting carbon nanotubes
N. Mingo, Liu Yang, Jie Han
We calculate the forces acting upon species adsorbed on a single wall carbon nanotube, in the presence of electric currents. We present a self consistent real space Green function…
Bandgap Change of Carbon Nanotubes: Effect of Small Tensile and Torsional Strain
Liu Yang, M. P. Anantram, Jie Han +1
We use a simple picture based on the electron approximation to study the bandgap variation of carbon nanotubes with uniaxial and torsional strain. We find (i) that the magnitud…
