Boron and nitrogen substitutional impurities in graphene are analyzed using a self-consistent tight-binding approach. An analytical result for the impurity Green's function is derived taking broken electron-hole symmetry into account and validated by comparison to numerical diagonalization. The impurity potential depe…

Using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, we have analyzed the growth of ZnO thin films on a Au(111) support. Because of the 12% lattice mismatch with the metal beneath, ZnO develops a (0001)-oriented coincidence lattice that gives rise to a well-ordered hexagonal Moiré pattern with 2.2 nm periodicity. Thi…

Linear, ring and 3D structures of (ZnTe)n clusters for n = 2–6 are completely optimized using B3LYP/LanL2DZ basis set. The stability, dipole moment and point group for linear, ring and 3D structures are studied. The stability of the clusters is found to increase with the increase in the cluster size. The dipole moment…
