Black phosphorene tune electronic properties via directional C-doped
Renan N. Pedrosa, Wanderlã L. Scopel, Rodrigo G. Amorim
The tuning black phosphorene properties such as structural, electronic, transport are explored via substitutional C-doped. We employed density functional theory (DFT) calculations…
Water-assisted electronic transport in graphene nanogaps for DNA sequencing
Ernane de Freitas Martins, Rodrigo G. Amorim, Gustavo Troiano Feliciano +2
Innovative methodologies for reliably and inexpensively sequencing DNA can lead to a new era of personalized medicine. In this work, we performed a theoretical investigation of a n…
Topological Line Defects around Graphene Nanopores for DNA Sequencing
Jariyanee Prasongkit, Ernane F. Martins, Fábio A. L. de Souza +5
Topological line defects in graphene represent an ideal way to produce highly controlled structures with reduced dimensionality that can be used in electronic devices. In this work…
Anisotropic electronic structure and transport properties of the - hyperhoneycomb lattice
Marcos Veríssimo-Alves, Rodrigo G. Amorim, A. S. Martins
Carbon, being one of the most versatile elements of the periodic table, forms solids and molecules with often unusual properties. Recently, a novel family of three-dimensional grap…
Interface of graphene nanopore and hexagonal boron nitride as a sensing device
Fabio A. L. de Souza, Wanderla L. Scopel, Rodrigo G. Amorim +1
The atomically-precise controlled synthesis of graphene stripes embedded in hexagonal boron nitride opens up new possibilities for the construction of nanodevices with applications…
Silicene as a new ultrafast DNA sequencing device
Rodrigo G. Amorim, Ralph H. Scheicher
Silicene, a hexagonal buckled 2-D allotrope of silicon, shows potential as a platform for numerous new applications, and may allow for easier integration with existing silicon-base…
Energetics and stability of vacancies in carbon nanotubes
José Eduardo Padilha, Rodrigo Garcia Amorim, Alexandre Reily Rocha +2
In this work we present ab initio calculations of the formation energies and stability of different types of multi-vacancies in carbon nanotubes. We demonstrate that, as in the cas…
