Band structure of the carbon doped zigzag boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) is calculated by a simple

tight-binding model. It was found that the doping effect of B-substituted and N-substituted BNNT is

different and carbon substitution...

In this paper, we investigate the electronic structure of both armchair and zigzag α -graphyne nanor-

ibbons. We use a simple tight binding model to study the variation of the electronic band gap in

α -graphyne nanoribbon. The effects...

First-principles calculations were performed to investigate the electronic structure of two-dimensional (2-D) Ge, Sn, and Pb without and with the presence of an external electric field in combination with spin–orbit coupling. Tight-binding...

Transport properties of an armchair boron-nitride nanoribbon (ABNNR) between two armchair

graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs) have been studied using the tight binding approach in the nearest

neighbor approximation. The tight biding...

In this article we study the role of Rashba spin–orbit coupling and electron–phonon interaction on the

electronic structure of zigzag graphene nanoribbon with different width. The total Hamiltonian of nanoribbon is written in the tight...

(SWCNTs) using the nearest neighbor, the third-nearest neighbor (3-NN-TB) and the fifth-nearest neighbor tight-binding (5-NN-TB) approaches to compare the estimated band gap and the density of states of the three methods. To do this, we not only make use...

In this paper, the Young’s modulus of single-walled carbon nanotubes

(SWCNTs) under uniaxial strain is studied by using the

tight-binding method in the nearest neighbor approximation while

the curvature effect take into account...
