摘要:

研究了单壁锯齿型[(3,0),(4,0),(5,0),(6,0),(8,0),(9,0),(12,0),(16,0),(20,0),(24,0)],扶手椅型[(3,3),(4,4),(5,5),(8,8),(12,12),(15,15)]和手性[(4,2),(6,2),(8,4),(10,4)] SiC-NTs以及单层蜂窝状SiC片的密度泛函理论计算结果表明,该方法具有较好的计算精度。结果表明,除了(3,0)和(4,0)Z形管为金属管外,其余SiC纳米管均为半导体管。此外,锯齿形SiC-NT的带隙是直接的,可以通过减小直径($D$)从SiC片的带隙减小到零,尽管对于所有直径大于~20 μ m $ $的SiC纳米管的带隙几乎与直径无关。对于平行于管轴的电场($E\parallel \hat{z}$),在低能区(0~6 eV)中,所有具有中等直径的SiC-NT(例如,$D$ $>$ 8 μ $ $)的$ε''$由在~3 eV处的单个明显峰组成。然而,对于小直径的SiC纳米管,例如(4,2)、(4,4)SiC-NT,$ε''$光谱确实明显偏离这种一般行为。在高能区(从6 eV以上),所有SiC-NT的$ε''$均表现出以~7 eV为中心的宽峰。对于垂直于管轴的电场($E\perp \hat{z}$),除了(4,4)、(3,0)和(4,0)纳米管之外的所有SiC-NT的$ε''$光谱在低能区中也由在约3eV处的显著峰组成,而在高能区中大致由从6 eV开始的宽峰组成。峰的幅度通常约为$E\parallel \hat{z}$的相应峰的幅度的一半。

英文摘要:

The band structure and optical dielectric function $ε$ of single-walled zigzag [(3,0),(4,0),(5,0),(6,0),(8,0),(9,0),(12,0),(16,0),(20,0),(24,0)], armchair [(3,3),(4,4),(5,5),(8,8),(12,12),(15,15)], and chiral [(4,2),(6,2),(8,4),(10,4)] SiC-NTs as well as the single honeycomb SiC sheet have been calculated within DFT with the LDA. It is found that all the SiC nanotubes are semiconductors, except the ultrasmall (3,0) and (4,0) zigzag tubes which are metallic. Furthermore, the band gap of the zigzag SiC-NTs which is direct, may be reduced from that of the SiC sheet to zero by reducing the diameter ($D$), though the band gap for all the SiC nanotubes with a diameter larger than ~20 Å$ $ is almost independent of diameter. For the electric field parallel to the tube axis ($E\parallel \hat{z}$), the $ε''$ for all the SiC-NTs with a moderate diameter (say, $D$ $>$ 8 Å$ $) in the low-energy region (0~6 eV) consists of a single distinct peak at ~3 eV. However, for the small diameter SiC nanotubes such as the (4,2),(4,4) SiC-NTs, the $ε''$ spectrum does deviate markedly from this general behavior. In the high-energy region (from 6 eV upwards), the $ε''$ for all the SiC-NTs exhibit a broad peak centered at ~7 eV. For the electric field perpendicular to the tube axis ($E\perp \hat{z}$), the $ε''$ spectrum of all the SiC-NTs except the (4,4), (3,0) and (4,0) nanotubes, in the low energy region also consists of a pronounced peak at around 3 eV whilst in the high-energy region is roughly made up of a broad hump starting from 6 eV. The magnitude of the peaks is in general about half of the magnitude of the corresponding ones for $E\parallel \hat{z}$.
