Role of vacancies in the magnetic and electronic properties of SiC nanoribbons: A nab initio study (2013)
Journal Article
Morbec, J. M., & Rahman, G. (2013). Role of vacancies in the magnetic and electronic properties of SiC nanoribbons: A nab initio study. Physical review B: Condensed matter and materials physics, https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevb.87.115428

Using ab initio calculations based on density functional theory, we investigate the effects of vacancies on the electronic and magnetic properties of zigzag SiC nanoribbons (Z-SiCNR). Single (V C and V Si ) and double (V Si V Si and V Si V C) vacanc... Read More about Role of vacancies in the magnetic and electronic properties of SiC nanoribbons: A nab initio study.

Intrinsic magnetism in nanosheets of SnO2: A first-principles study (2013)
Journal Article
Abreu Da Silva Morbec. (2013). Intrinsic magnetism in nanosheets of SnO2: A first-principles study. Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, 104 -108. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmmm.2012.10.017

We propose intrinsic magnetism in nanosheets of SnO2, based on first-principles calculations. The electronic structure and spin density reveal that p orbitals of the oxygen atoms, surrounding Sn vacancies, have a non-itinerant nature which gives birt...
