The response of mechanical and electronic properties of graphane to the elastic strain
M. Topsakal, S. Cahangirov, S. Ciraci
Based on first-principles calculations, we resent a method to reveal the elastic properties of recently synthesized monolayer hydrocarbon, graphane. The in-plane stiffness and Pois…
Monolayer honeycomb structures of group IV elements and III-V binary compounds
Hasan Sahin, S. Cahangirov, M. Topsakal +4
Using first-principles plane wave calculations, we investigate two dimensional honeycomb structure of Group IV elements and their binary compounds, as well as the compounds of Grou…
Confinement of electrons in size modulated silicon nanowires
Seymur Cahangirov, Salim Ciraci
Based on first-principles calculations we showed that superlattices of periodically repeated junctions of hydrogen saturated silicon nanowire segments having different lengths and…
A First-Principles Study of Zinc Oxide Honeycomb Structures
M. Topsakal, S. Cahangirov, E. Bekaroglu +1
We present a first-principles study of the atomic, electronic, and magnetic properties of two-dimensional (2D), single and bilayer ZnO in honeycomb structure and its armchair and z…
A first-principles systematic study of GaAs nanowires
S. Cahangirov, S. Ciraci
In this paper we present a detailed analysis of the atomic and electronic structure of GaAs nanowires using first-principles pseudopotential calculations. We consider six different…
