Atomic structure, fundamental electronic, optical and magnetic properties of low-dimensional structures of semiconductors

The results of theoretical modeling from the first principles of atomic structure and properties of promising low-dimensional structures from semiconductors, performed for the past five years at the Center of Nanoelectronics and Novel Materials of Belarusian state university of informatics and radioelectronics, are summarized. The discovered principal new properties of two-dimensional structures from dichalcogenides of refractory metals and semiconductor silicides, one-dimensional structures of silicon, А3В5 semiconductors and semiconductor metal oxides, and zero-dimensional structures of carbon - nanodiamonds - are presented.
