Density functional theory study of geometrical structures and electronic properties of silica nanowires

Silica nanowires are expected to possess structural diversity like bulk silica. We modeled three silica nanowires based on the side-shared two-membered rings, spiro-united two-membered rings, and three-membered rings, respectively. By performing density functional theory calculations, we studied their geometrical structures and electronic properties with and without the presence of external electric field. It is found that the stability of silica nanowires increases with length and diameter. As indicated by calculated large HOMO-LUMO gaps, silica nanowires are expected to be good insulating materials. The energy gaps, however, gradually decrease with applied electronic field and finally close, resulting in the breakdown of the insulating nanowires. Moreover, it is shown that the breakdown threshold remarkably increases with the nanowire diameter. These significant findings from the present calculations for the simplest silica nanowires will provide relevant insight into the structures and properties of much more complicated real silica nanowires.     

Size dependence of structural, electronic, elastic, and optical properties of selenium nanowires: a first-principles study

We have studied the structural, elastic, and optical properties of selenium nanowires, as well as bulk selenium, by performing first-principles density functional theory calculations. The nanowires are structurally similar to bulk trigonal Se, in that they consist of hexagonal arrays of helices, though there is a slight structural rearrangement in response to the finite size of the nanowires. These small structural changes result in Young's modulus decreasing slightly for progressively thinner nanowires. However, there is a significant effect on electronic structure and optical properties. The thinner the nanowire, the greater the band gap, and the greater the anisotropy in optical conductivity. The latter is due to the effects of finite size being much more marked for the case where the electric field is polarized perpendicular to the helical axis, than in the case where the polarization is parallel to c. For the case of bulk Se, we obtain good agreement with experimental data on the structure, elastic constants, and dielectric function.     

Amplified ultraviolet detection of natural DNA based on Mo6S9-xIx nanowires

We demonstrate that Mo_6S_(9_x)I_x nanowires(MoSI NWs) can serve as an excellent signal-intensifying nanomaterial for highly sensitive and label-free detection of DNA by ultraviolet(UV) spectrophotometry.The DNA extinction at 260 nm was greatly enhanced after addition of MoSI NWs solute,and the extinction value was linear with DNA concentration in the range of 0.0289-11.68 μg/mL with the real determination limit of 28.9 ng/mL.The association of DNA with the nanowires was characterized by transmission electronmicroscopy and circular dichroic spectroscopy.The results illustrate that the UV response amplification of DNA in the presence of MoSI NWs is attributed to the greater DNA coverage on the MoSI NW surface and the conformational transformation of DNA due to interaction of DNA with MoSI NWs.MoSI NWs are a promising nano-structured material for developing ultrasensitive sensors for detection of DNA.

Metallic single-crystal CoSi nanowires via chemical vapor deposition of single-source precursor

We report the synthesis, structural characterization, and electrical transport properties of free-standing single-crystal CoSi nanowires synthesized via a single-source precursor route. Nanowires with diameters of 10-150 nm and lengths of greater than 10 mum were synthesized through the chemical vapor deposition of Co(SiCl(3))(CO)(4) onto silicon substrates that were covered with 1-2 nm thick SiO(2). Transmission electron microscopy confirms the single-crystal structure of the cubic CoSi. X-ray absorption and emission spectroscopy confirm the chemical identity and show the expected metallic nature of CoSi, which is further verified by room-temperature and low-temperature electrical transport measurements of nanowire devices. The average resistivity of CoSi nanowires is found to be about 510 muOmega cm. Our general and rational nanowire synthesis approach will lead to a broad class of silicide nanowires, including those metallic materials that serve as high-quality building blocks for nanoelectronics and magnetic semiconducting Fe(1-x)Co(x)Si suitable for silicon-based spintronics.     

A Novel Hydrogen Peroxide Amperometric Sensor based on Thionin Incorporated onto a Mo6S9‐xIx Nanowire Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode

A simple and enzymeless amperometric sensor for the detection of H₂O₂ based on a new kind of nanomaterial Mo₆S_9?xI_x (MoSI) nanowires (NWs) was developed. The construction of the sensing platform was based on strong electrostatic interactions between negatively charged MoSI NWs and positively charged thionin molecules. MoSI NWs act as not only a good substrate for the immobilization of redox mediator thionin, but also a promoter for electrocatalysis of H₂O₂. The fabricated sensor showed a wide linear range over the concentration of H₂O₂ from 5 μM to 2.8 mM with a measurable lowest detection of 0.8 μM; furthermore, it exhibited good stability and reproducibility.     

One-dimensional Intrinsic Ferromagnetic Semiconductor CuCl_2: a First-principles Study

One-dimensional nanowires with robust magnetism are desirable for spintronic applications. Herein, on the basis of the first-principles calculations, systematic investigations on the electronic and magnetic properties of the CuCl2 nanowire were performed, which can be potentially tailored from its bulk form. The CuCl2 nanowire exhibits a ferromagnetic ground state. The band structures indicate that the CuCl2 nanowire is a ferromagnetic semiconductor. The spin flip gap is large enough for avoiding spin flip. Phonon dispersion and Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics simulation manifest that the CuCl2 nanowire is stable. In addition, distinct magnetic properties of the CuCl2 nanowires inside two types of carbon nanotubes were obtained. The study broadens the family of the existing one-dimensional materials with promising applications for spintronics.
