Electronic Structures of Antisite Defects in Chiral (6,2) SiC Nanotubes

Antisite defects are common defects in nanotube materials and have seriously impacts on their electronic properties. Based on density-functional theory calculations, the electronic structures of the antisite defective chiral (6, 2) SiCNTs are investigated. C antisite and Si antisite lead to the formation of a depression and a bump in the surface of the nanotube, respectively. In the band gap of the SiCNT with a C antisite defect, the occupied level near the top of the valence band is formed, while the unoccupied level originating from the Si antisite defect enters the conduction band of the SiCNT.
