锯齿形碳纳米管边缘态的旋转对称自发破缺

Rotation Symmetry Spontaneous Breaking of Edge States in Zigzag Carbon Nanotubes

Weiliang Wang, Ningsheng Xu, Zhibing Li

摘要:

得到了端键畸变的(N,0)型碳纳米管边缘态的解析解。发现边缘态通过畸变而混合。对于N=5和N>=7的总能量在末端键的不对称构型中低于具有轴旋转对称的构型。因此对称性会自发地被打破。结果表明,电子态的对称性取决于电子的占据,电子密度的分布会发生很大的变化,并且可以通过外加电场来控制.

英文摘要:

Analytical solutions of the edge states were obtained for the (N, 0) type carbon nanotubes with distorted ending bonds. It was found that the edge states are mixed via the distortion. The total energies for N=5 and N>=7 are lower in the asymmetric configurations of ending bonds than those having axial rotation symmetry. Thereby the symmetry is breaking spontaneously. The results imply that the symmetry of electronic states at the apex depends on the occupation; the electron density pattern at the apex could change dramatically and could be controlled by applying an external field.
