Quantum transport properties of ultrathin silver nanowires
Jijun Zhao, Buia Calin, Jie Han +1
The quantum transport properties of the ultrathin silver nanowires are investigated. For a perfect crystalline nanowire with four atoms per unit cell, three conduction channels are…
Work functions of pristine and alkali-metal intercalated carbon nanotubes and bundles
Jijun Zhao, Jie Han, Jian Ping Lu
The work functions (WF) of single-walled carbon nanotubes and bundles are studied using first principles methods. For individual metallic tubes, the WF is independent of the chiral…
Gas molecule adsorption in carbon nanotubes and nanotube bundles
Jijun Zhao, Alper Buldum, Jie Han +1
We studied various gas molecules (NO, O, NH, N, CO, CH, HO, H, Ar) on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and bundles using first principles meth…
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…
Conductance of metallic carbon nanotubes dipped into a metal
N. Mingo, Jie Han
We calculate the conductance variation of several metallic carbon nanotubes as their end is being dipped into a liquid metal electrode, where experiments have shown an achievable c…
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…
