Thermoelectric Features of Magnetic Doped Graphene Nanoribbons

Thermoelectric properties of Graphene Nanoribbons doped by magnetic impurities Fe and Co are carried out in room temperature. We report on a study of the band structure dependent properties such as electrical conductivity, charge of carriers and Seebeck coefficients. We investigate the thermoelectric properties using the Semi-classical Boltzmann method. The electronic band structure of doped nanoribbons are evaluated by using density-functional theory in which the Hubbard interaction is considered. In this work we compare the different types of the nanoribbons and their thermoelectric features in the presence and absence of the magnetic impurities and discuss the importance of the distance between impurities and the edge of the nanoribbons.

Condensed Matter Laboratory: new application for quantum simulation

The purpose of this paper is to introduce Condensed-Matter-Laboratory (CML) application for simulating solids and nanostructures and calculating different properties of them by density functional theory and using Green's function theory in tight-binding approximation to calculate phononic and spin dependent or independent electronic properties of different systems. Also, it can be used for calculating thermodynamic properties of solids and nanostructures using statistical mechanics. The CML is a cross-platform application with a graphical user interface design that is user-friendly and easy to work with. This application is written in c++ and fortran and has parallel processing ability. To show flexibility of this application some reasons are presented.

Time evolution of nanoscale systems by finite difference method

Using finite difference method, time evolution of a typical metal molecule metal system is studied by introducing a new method to solve general related Volterra integro differential equation (IDE). Discretization in time domain is applied for one dimentional chain tight binding model in several cases by defining a matrix integro-differential equation (MIDE). Results are compatible with their analytical counterparts and show more accuracy than other numerical methods like Runge Kutta (RK). Charge transport properties in a trans polyacetylene chain are found by studying the time evolution of charge density in it and current voltage diagram is calculated.
