Density functional theory (DFT) is employed to investigate ferroelectric (FE) hafnium-zirconium oxide stack models for both metal-insulator-metal (MIM) and metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structures. The role of dielectric (DE) interlayers at the...

Based on MoC2 nanoribbons and poly-(terphenylene-butadiynylene) (PTB) molecules, we designed MoC2-PTB molecular spintronic devices and investigated their spin-dependent electron transport properties by using spin-polarized density functional theory and non-equilibrium Green's...

Based on the non-equilibrium Green function method combined with density functional theory, we investigate the spin-resolved transport through transition metal (TM) (= Cr, Mn, Fe and Ru)-containing molecular devices in the presence of zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) electrodes.

Abstract A heterostructure of trilayer/monolayer platinum diselenide has been introduced and further studied. Applying the non-equilibrium green function tuned with density functional theory, it has been shown that such a junction forms a diode structure. The current voltage characteristic shows proper diode characteristics in nanoscale. Using the transmission spectrum and projected density of state, we have demonstrated that in forward bias, the conduction band and the valence band are aligned. Therefore, the possibility of tunneling enhances and this leads to the increase of current while in reverse bias such a possibility does not exist. We have also investigated the atoms of the junction and have identified the effective ones in the transmission.
