The electronic transport properties of hybrid nanoribbons constructed by substituting zigzag graphane nanoribbons (ZGaNRs) into zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs) are investigated with the non-equilibrium Green’s function method and the density functional theory. Both symmetric and asymmetric ZGNRs are considered. The electronic transport of symmetric and asymmetric ZGNR-based hybrid nanoribbons behave distinctly differently from each other even in the presence of the same substitution positions of ZGaNRs. Moreover, the electronic transport of these hybrid systems is found to be enhanced or weakened compared with pristine ZGNRs depending on the substitution position and proportion. Our results suggest that such hybridization is an effective approach to modulate the transport properties of ZGNRs.

Purpose The purpose of this study is use to density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the molecular adsorption by PEDOT:PSS for different doping levels. DFT calculations are performed using the SIESTA code. In addition, the non-equilibrium Green’s function method is used within the TranSIESTA code to determine the quantum transport properties of molecular nanodevices. Design/methodology/approach Density functional theory (DFT) is used to investigate the molecular adsorption by PEDOT:PSS for different doping levels. DFT calculations are performed using the SIESTA code. In addition, the non-equilibrium Green’s function method is used within the TranSIESTA code to determine the quantum transport properties of molecular nanodevices. Findings Simulation results show very good sensitivity of Pd-doped PEDOT:PSS to ammonia, carbon dioxide and methane, so this structure cannot be used for simultaneous exposure to these gases. Silver-doped PEDOT:PSS structure provides a favorable sensitivity to ammonia in addition to exhibiting a better selectivity. If the experiment is repeated, the sensitivity is increased for a larger concentration of the applied gas. However, the sensitivity will decrease at a higher ratio than smaller concentrations of gas. Originality/value The advantages of the proposed sensor are its low-cost implementation and simple fabrication process compared to other sensors. Moreover, the proposed sensor exhibits appropriate sensitivity and repeatability at room temperature.
