In this paper, the SCC-DFTB calculation method is used to systematically study the regulation of carbon atom doping on the electronic properties of 6-15-layer armchair bilayer silicene nanoribbons (ASiNRs). The results show that the doping position (edge/vertical) of carbon atoms significantly affects the geometric structure, stability and electronic behavior of the nanoribbons. Specifically, the system still maintains the direct band gap semiconductor characteristics after doping, and the band gap varies regularly with the doping position and the width of the nanoribbon: the longitudinal doping band gap is up to 0.37 eV, and shows the oscillation behavior of odd and even layers; in contrast, the edge-doped band gap is continuously tunable, up to 0.428 eV. In order to further understand the physical mechanism of the above band gap regulation, we carried out charge distribution analysis. The results show that the carbon atom acts as an electron capture center to attract the electrons of the surrounding silicon atoms, resulting in charge redistribution. The edge doping transfers more charge than the longitudinal doping, and has a more significant longitudinal effect on the lower nanoribbons. Consistent with this, the density of states analysis further confirms that the p-orbital of silicon dominates the electronic structure, and the p-orbital contribution of carbon is weak. In summary, this study shows that carbon doping can effectively regulate the electrical properties of silicene nanoribbons, which provides an important theoretical basis for the design of silicon-based nanoelectronic and optoelectronic devices.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46322,"journal":{"name":"Computational Condensed Matter","volume":"46 ","pages":"Article e01179"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145610580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is of paramount importance to design a modified Ni<sub>3</sub>Ti-based alloy that can overcome some of its limitations. One way to enhance its properties is by substituting Ti with a foreign element, like Ta. In this study, first principles calculations are performed to determine the structural stability of Ni<sub>3</sub>(Ti<sub>1-x</sub>Ta<sub>x</sub>) phases, namely D0<sub>19</sub>, D0<sub>22</sub>, D0<sub>24</sub>, D0<sub>a</sub>, and monoclinic structures using Density Functional Theory (DFT). For comparative purposes, the binary intermetallic phases, namely Ni<sub>3</sub>Ti and Ni<sub>3</sub>Ta are also studied. Results show that a new ternary phase, Ni<sub>3</sub>(Ti<sub>0.67</sub>Ta<sub>0.33</sub>) with the symmetry of <em>Pm</em> space group of monoclinic structure has lowest energy of formation and strongest bond. The calculated mechanical and thermophysical properties of Ni<sub>3</sub>Ti<sub>0.67</sub>Ta<sub>0.33</sub>-<em>Pm</em> (D0<sub>19</sub>) are higher than the most stable Ni<sub>3</sub>Ta-D0<sub>22</sub> structure. The dynamic stability of Ni<sub>3</sub>Ti<sub>0.67</sub>Ta<sub>0.33</sub>-<em>Pm</em> (D0<sub>19</sub>) ternary compound at 300 K is confirmed at by AIMD simulations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46322,"journal":{"name":"Computational Condensed Matter","volume":"46 ","pages":"Article e01195"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145737259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
