We present a computational study of the atomic morphology, structural order and charge transfer properties of radially -conjugated, closed-loop, highly strained chiral carbon nano-belts (CNB). Synthesis of nano-belts has recently...
We report on time-dependent
density functional theory calculations
of the excited states of 63 different graphene quantum dots (GQDs)
in square shape with side lengths of 1, 1.5, and 2 nm. We investigate
the systematics and trends in the UV–vis absorption spectra
of these GQDs, which are doped with elements B, N, O, S, and P at
dopant percentages of 1.5%, 3%, 5%, and 7%. The results show how the
peaks in the UV and visible parts of the spectrum as well as the total
absorption evolve in the chemical parameter space along the coordinates
of size, dopant type, and dopant percentage. The absorption spectra
calculated here can be used to obtain particular GQD mixture proportions
that would yield a desired absorption profile such as flat absorption
across the whole visible spectrum or one that is locally peaked around
a chosen wavelength.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
