Stability of hydrogenated group-IV nanostructures: magic structures of diamond nanocrystals and Silicon quantum dots
Xiaobao Yang, Hu Xu, Yu-Jun Zhao +1
We have developed an effective model to investigate the energetic stability of hydrogenated group-IV nanostructures, followed by validations from first-principles calculations. It…

Graphene edge from A to Z - and the origins of nanotube chirality
Yuanyue Liu, Alex Dobrinsky, Boris I. Yakobson
The energy of arbitrary graphene edge is derived in analytical form. It contains a "chemical phase shift", determined by the chemical conditions at the edge. Direct atomistic compu…

Cones, pringles, and grain boundary landscapes in graphene topology
Yuanyue Liu, Boris I. Yakobson
A polycrystalline graphene consists of perfect domains tilted at angle α to each other and separated by the grain boundaries (GB). These nearly one-dimensional regions consist in t…
