Influence of edge passivation on the transport properties of the zigzag phosphorene nanoribbons

By using first-principles calculation based on density functional theory and non-equilibrium Green's function method, we investigate the transport properties of zigzag phosphorene nanoribbons (ZPNRs). The edges of the ZPNRs can be passivated in three ways named W1, W2, W3. These calculated results show that the electronic transport properties of the ZPNRs can be seriously influenced by the edge passivation ways, and the transport is determined by both the two edges and the interaction between them. Moreover, we find the width of the ZPNR can switch on or switch off the transport channel of the W3-type ZPNR. Furthermore, we present the transmission spectra, the band structures of both left and right electrodes, the molecular energy levels, and transmission eigenstates of the H-S-passivated W3-type ZPNRs to uncover the transport mechanism. This study provides a theoretical support for designing the related nanodevices by changing the passivation ways, which is an effective route for tuning the electronic structures and the transport properties of the phosphorene nanoribbons.     

Properties of the transport layer formed at the interface between two polymer films

Electronic transport properties of a 2D boundary layers formed by two films of an organic polymer material are investigated. It is established that the conductivity of such a layer is several orders of magnitude higher than the surface conductivity of individual films forming the experimental structure. Temperature measurements show that transport of charge carriers over this layer can be described using the models of Schottky thermionic emission and hopping transport over trap levels.     

An extension of the multiple-trapping model

The hopping charge transport in disordered semiconductors is considered. Using the concept of the transport energy level, macroscopic equations are derived that extend a multiple-trapping model to the case of semiconductors with both energy and spatial disorders. It is shown that, although both types of disorder can cause dispersive transport, the frequency dependence of conductivity is determined exclusively by the spatial disorder.

Experimental investigation of dynamical coupling between turbulent transport and parallel flows in the JET plasma-boundary region

The dynamical coupling between turbulent transport and parallel flows has been investigated in the plasma boundary region of the Joint European Torus tokamak. Experimental results show that there is a dynamical relationship between transport and parallel flows. As the size of transport events increases, parallel flows also increase. These results show that turbulent transport can drive parallel flows in the plasma boundary of fusion plasmas. This new type of measurement is an important element to unravel the overall picture connecting radial transport and flows in fusion plasmas.     

Enhancing the accelerated beam current in the booster synchrotron by optimizing the transport line beam propagation

In this paper, we present the results of transverse beam emittance and twiss parameter measurement of an electron beam, delivered by a 20 MeV microtron which is used as a pre-injector system for a booster synchrotron in the Indus Accelerator Facility at RRCAT Indore. Based on these measured beam parameters, beam optics of a transport line was optimized and its results are also discussed in this paper. This beam transport line is used to transport the electron beam from the 20 MeV microtron to the booster synchrotron. The booster synchrotron works as a main injector for Indus-1 and Indus-2 synchrotron radiation facilities. To optimize the beam optics of a transport line for proper beam transmission through the line as well as to match the beam twiss parameters at the beam injection point of another accelerator, it is necessary to know the transverse beam emittance and twiss parameters of the beam coming from the first one. A MATLAB-based GUI program has been developed to calculate the beam emittance and twiss parameters, using quadrupole scan method. The measured parameters have been used for beam transport line optimization and twiss parameters matching at booster injection point. After this optimization, an enhancement of ～50% beam current has been observed in the booster synchrotron.     

Dynamic critical behavior of semi-infinite systems: the study of the model C

The dynamic critical behavior of semi-infinite model C near the special and ordinary transitions is investigated using field theoretic renormalization-group approach. It is shown that the dynamic surface quantities have different critical behavior aginst their bulk analogues and their scaling laws can be expressed entirely in terms of static (bulk and surface) exponents and dynamic exponents. It is found that at the critical point the surface transport coefficient reaches a finite value via a cusplike singularity and the surface-bulk transport coefficient diverges, but the bulk transport coefficient remains finite as that of the infinite model C.     

The effect of the electron-phonon coupling on the thermal conductivity of silicon nanowires

The thermal conductivity of free-standing silicon nanowires (SiNWs) with diameters from 1-3?nm has been studied by using the one-dimensional Boltzmann's transport equation. Our model explicitly accounts for the Umklapp scattering process and electron-phonon coupling effects in the calculation of the phonon scattering rates. The role of the electron-phonon coupling in the heat transport is relatively small for large silicon nanowires. It is found that the effect of the electron-phonon coupling on the thermal conduction is enhanced as the diameter of the silicon nanowires decreases. Electrons in the conduction band scatter low-energy phonons effectively where surface modes dominate, resulting in a smaller thermal conductivity. Neglecting the electron-phonon coupling leads to overestimation of the thermal transport for ultra-thin SiNWs. The detailed study of the phonon density of states from the surface atoms and central atoms shows a better understanding of the nontrivial size dependence of the heat transport in silicon nanowire.

Collective Directional Transport in Symmetric Periodic Potentials by Breaking the Coupling Symmetry

Collective unidirectional motion of an asymmetrically coupled array of oscillators in symmetric periodic potentials is studied. A directed current is observed when the drift coupling is presented, while no external biased force is applied. Negative directed current is found when varying system parameters. An addition of a periodic rocking force may enhance the efficiency of directed transport. Resonant steps of the current are found and interpreted as the mode locking between the array and the ac force. Noise-assisted transport is observed, and an optimal noise intensity can give rise to a most efficient transport. The directed transport thus can be optimized and furthermore controlled by suitably adjusting the parameters of the system.     

Mechanism of the transport of nickel along a Si(111) surface in the presence of adsorbed cobalt atoms

The mechanism of the transport of nickel along a Si(111) surface in the presence of adsorbed cobalt atoms is established by LEED and Auger electronic spectroscopy. The mechanism consists of diffusion of nickel atoms through the bulk and segregation of the atoms on the surface during annealing. This mechanism of nickel transport plays the governing role at temperatures below 700°C, where nickel transport along clean silicon surfaces is not observed. It is found that the nickel segregation factor is what determines the lowest temperature at which nickel transport is observed on clean silicon surfaces. Pis’ma Zh. éksp. Teor.

Bi2Te3: implications of the rhombohedral k-space texture on the evaluation of the in-plane/out-of-plane conductivity anisotropy

Different computational scheme for calculating surface integrals in anisotropic Brillouin zones are compared. An example of the transport distribution function (plasma frequency) of the thermoelectric material Bi(2)Te(3) near the band edges is discussed. The layered structure of the material together with the rhombohedral symmetry causes a strong anisotropy of the transport distribution function for the directions in the basal plane (in-plane) and perpendicular to the basal plane (out-of-plane). It is shown that a thorough reciprocal space integration is necessary to reproduce the in-plane/out-of-plane anisotropy. A quantitative comparison can be made at the band edges, where the transport anisotropy is given in terms of the anisotropic mass tensor.
