摘要
The structural, electronic and optical properties of AB(2) (A = Si, Ge and B = 0, S) nanotubes have been investigated by the first-principles calculations. The one-dimensional SiO2 nanotubes are predicted to be insulators with the large band gaps (similar to 6 eV), while other tubes are semiconductors. The four types of nanotubes, especially for the SiS2-4 nanotube with a large absorption coefficient (similar to 1.50 x 10(5) cm(-1)), generally exhibit strong absorption in UV region. The size dependences of optical properties on the tube-diameter are remarkable for SiO2, SiS2, and GeS2 nanotubes, while the absorption spectra in parallel (0 0 1) direction of GeO2 nanotubes are less sensitive to the radius of nanotube.
