Application of Green’s function approach to electronic structure of carbon nanocylinders
Abstract
The local density of states of the carbon nanostructures can be calculated in different ways. Here, we present the Haydock recursion method which, using the Green’s function approach, transforms the given surface into a chain of equivalent sites. Then, using the continued fraction, we apply this procedure on the surface of the nanocylinders.
