Abstract

Electronic band structure and energetic stability of two types of 〈110〉 and 〈001〉 oriented silicon nanowires in β-Sn phase with the surface terminated by hydrogen atoms were studied using density functional theory. It was found that β-Sn nanowires are metastable with zero band gap against to nanowires in diamond phase. The relative energy of the studied wires tends to the energy of the bulk silicon crystal in β-Sn phase.
