Abstract

In this work, within the framework of density functional theory combined with the method of nonequilibrium Green’s functions the density of states, transmission spectrum, current-voltage characteristics, and differential conductivity of Li-intercalated graphene (LiC6) have been determined. It is shown that in the energy range of -1.3÷-1.05 eV the quasiparticle transport through the nanostructure is disable. The features of IV- and dI/dV-characteristics of LiC6 in the form of decreasing of resistance in the range of -0.4÷0.4 V were revealed, and in the interval of 0.4÷1.4 V formation of negative differential resistance area, related to scattering of quasiparticles. It is established, that LiC6 nanodevice has 12÷13 ballistic channels and has the maximum amount of conductance 12÷13G0 , where Go is the conductance quantum.
