Title: I-V of graphene nanosheet
Post by: Monika srivastava on May 27, 2021, 14:28
Hello sir

Is the number of repetition in graphene nanosheet affects the current or threshold voltage in current-voltage characteristics observed by modeling a two probe device model.

As it is well known that threshold voltage is decided by the band gap observed in density of states of the material but still I am getting two different curves for two different repetition.  one having 7 repetition shows increment of current from zero bias while one having repetition 11 shows some negative values of current and then start increasing around 0.15 V

Could you post a script used for this calculation? For example, if your graphene ribbon is intrinsic and has no doped-graphene based or actual metal source/drain electrodes attached, then the IV characteristics will depend on the device central region length.

Thank you sir for replying


Please find the attachment of the script files

You would need to design proper electrodes when applying bias voltage, e.g., by doping source and drain, see an example on how to introduce doping in https://docs.quantumatk.com/tutorials/silicon_nanowire/silicon_nanowire.html (Section: Doping the Si(100) wire).

Also, you may consider using IVCharacteristics study object to do device calculations, see https://docs.quantumatk.com/tutorials/ivcharacteristics/ivcharacteristics.html.

I have used two probe model for finding I-V
