Electron Transfer on Impurity doped Graphene Nanoribbon

Electronic transport properties in armchair shaped edges graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs) doped various impurities have been simulated by the non-equilibrium Green's function approach combined with the first principle calculation based on the density functional theory. We have observed that impurity levels appear in electronic structures, and that the quantization of transmission function is moderated for doped AGNRs. The I-V characteristic can be computed from the transmission function. Our simulation results show that AGNRs doped impurities have higher conductance than the non-doped one.
