Optimization of effective electron mass in strained silicon nanosheets
This work investigated the effective mass of electrons in silicon nanosheets confined in the [001] and [1̄10] directions and having thicknesses of several nanometers with uniaxial tensile stress in the [110] direction, using density functional theory. The results show that the confinement along [1̄1...
