الوصف: | In this work, we study the electronic and transport properties of phosphorene nanorings in two perpendicular directions (zigzag and armchair directions) in the presence of zigzag metallic source and drain leads. Our results are based on the non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) method and a five-parameter tight-binding (TB) approach. We investigate how system parameters affect the electronic transport. These parameters include the radius of the rings, the width of the leads and the external potential. Our results show that for all configurations studied, a transport energy gap exists whose width can be tuned by the width of the leads and the radius of the nanoring. The transmission function of wider leads shows more sensitivity to the variation of the inner radius due to higher electronic states that can respond to smaller changes in the scattering region. In addition, the transport along the armchair direction is more susceptible to tuning than the transport along the zigzag direction. The effects of external potentials on the conductance are more pronounced than the geometrical parameters. In particular the circular potential of the amplitude of 0.1 eV can widen the transport gap by about ~0.35 eV. Comment: 12 pages, 7 main figures |
