| Research Abstract |
1.Design of hydrogenated magnetic nanographite :
Design of magnetic nanographite ribbon structure by mono-hydrogenation of one edge and by di-hydrogenation of another edge. We have designed high spin molecules by the method and confirmed the magnetic ground state by the first-principles calculations
2.Design of hydrogenated magnetic nanotubes and magnetic nanohorns :
Design of magnetic nanotubes and nanohorns was done by hydrogenation of edges. For finite thin nanotubes, magnetic moments are smaller than expected values by a finite size effect.
3.Electronic structures of fluorine-terminated nanotubes
Different from planer magnetic nanographite ribbons with fluorine terminated zigzag edges, finite nanotubes with fluorine-terminated edges do not show magnetic polarization.
4.Prediction of magnetic graphite-diamond hybrid structures
We have designed graphite-diamond hybrid structures and shown possible magnetically polarized nano-wires on the diamond (100) surface.
5.Defect mediated magnetism at the arm-chair edges of nanographite structures
We have shown by the first-principles calculations that introduction of specified defects at the stable arm-chair edges results in magnetic arm-chair nanographite ribbons.
6.Edge states at the hydrogen-terminated zigzag edges of nanographite structures
Using the tight-binding calculations, we have shown that observed states by STM at the hydrogen-terminated zigzag edges of nanographite structures are the graphite edge states.
7.Development of design methods for the nano-carbon systems with electron correlation
For theoretical design of the magnetic nanographite structures, we have developed a new first-principles calculation method based on a density-matrix functional theory, which determines effective interacting electron models by identification of local density-density fluctuation.
