Intrinsic Half-Metallicity in Modified Graphene Nanoribbons
Open accessAbstract
We perform first-principles calculations based on density functional theory to study quasi-one-dimensional edge-passivated (with hydrogen) zigzag graphene nanoribbons of various widths with chemical dopants, boron and nitrogen, keeping the whole system isoelectronic. The gradual increase in doping concentration takes the system finally to zigzag boron nitride nanoribbons (ZBNNRs). Our study reveals that for all doping concentrations the systems stabilize in antiferromagnetic ground states. Doping concentrations and dopant positions regulate the electronic structure of the nanoribbons, exhibiting both semiconducting and half-metallic behaviors as a response to the external electric field. Interestingly, our results show that ZBNNRs with a terminating polyacene unit exhibit half-metallicity irrespective of the ribbon width as well as applied electric field, opening a huge possibility in spintronics device applications.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
