The emergence of phase separation is investigated in the framework of a 2D t-J model by means of a variational product ansatz, which covers the infinite lattice by two types of L × L clusters. Clusters of the first type are completely occupied with electrons, i.e. they carry maximal charge Qe = L2 and total spin 0, and thereby form the antiferromagnetic background. Holes occur in the second type of clusters - called 'hole clusters'. They carry a charge Qh0.5) it turns out that hole clusters are occupied with an even... 

The effect of Stone-Wales (SW) defect on the performance of an armchair graphene nanoribbon (AGNR)-based photodetector is studied. To model the SW defect two new tight-binding (TB) parameters are proposed that provide results that are in good agreement with density functional theory calculations. SW defect is introduced in different locations in the channel of the AGNR detector and the photocurrent, quantum efficiency and responsivity of defected structures are calculated using TB approximation and non-equilibrium Green's function formalism. By inspecting the photo-generated hole density in different points of the channel, the way that photocurrent is affected by SW defect in different...
