Abstract:<p>Silicene is envisaged as one of the two-dimensional (2D) materials for future nanoelectronic applications. In addition to its extraordinary electronic properties, it is predicted to be compatible with the silicon (Si) fabrication technology. By using nearest neighbour tight-binding (NNTB) approach, the electronic properties of zigzag silicene nanoribbons (ZSiNRs) with single vacancy (SV) defects are modelled and simulated. For 4-ZSiNR with L=2, the band structures and density of states (DOS) are compu… Show more
