The energy gap of the two-atomic-layer film of P has a band gap of 1.2 eV, and as the thickness becomes large, the band gap becomes close to that of the bulk, which is a semiconductor. The most stable structure of the two-atomic-layer Bi film has an energy gap of 0.2 eV and two atoms on the surface are buckled. The nonbuckled structure is metallic and is metastable and its energy is slightly (12 meV) higher than that of the buckled structure. We discuss why the P films are nonbucked and the stable Bi films are buckled. © 2007 The Japan Society of Applied Physics., 金沢大学ナノマテリアル研究所 / 金沢大学理工研究域数物科学系}, pages = {7824--7828}, title = {Comparative Study of Atomic and Electronic Structures of P and Bi Nanofilms}, volume = {46}, year = {2007} }
