First-principles calculation of novel group-IV nanostructures

ORAL

Abstract

The structure, stability and electronic properties of nanosheets of group-IV elements were studied using density-functional theory. The nature of bonding with hydrogen was investigated by analyzing the electron density distribution and by calculating the binding energy.
