Carbon nanoribbon simulation

The electronic properties of the structure of a single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT?s) strongly depend upon the tube diameter and chirality (given by the chiral indices m and n). SWCNT?s are either metallic or semiconducting depending on their parameters. This thesis has been made at Yıldız Technical University Department of Physics ?Carbon Nanotube Simulation Laboratory? founded by Prof. Dr. Gülay Dereli. In this thesis, Order N, Parallel Tight Binding Molecular Dynamics Simulation program written by Prof. Dr. Gülay DERELİ has been used. We calculated the electronic density of state (eDOS), Fermi energy level and band structure energy of each tube with varying chiralities from (10,0), (11,0), (13,0), (14,0), (17,0), (28,0). We calculated from (10,0), (11,0), (13,0), (14,0), (17,0), (28,0) carbon nanoribbon?s physical properties( bond angle, bond length and radial distribution function and atomic coordination number). We applied from (17,0) and (28,0) carbon nanoribbon ten thousand step tension and compression on balanced tubes in fifty thousand MD step. We examined carbon nanoribbon?s electronic and physical properties.Keywords: Carbon Nanotubes, Nanoribbon, electronic properties of Carbon nanoribbon?s, Band gap energy, Fermi energy, Tight- binding Molecular Dynamics
