Effect of substitutionally boron‐doped single‐walled semiconducting zigzag carbon nanotubes on ammonia adsorption 下载免费PDF全文
We investigate the binding of ammonia on intrinsic and substitutionally doped semiconducting single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) on the side walls using density functional calculations. Ammonia is found to be weakly physisorbed on intrinsic semiconducting nanotubes while on substitutional doping with boron its affinity is enhanced considerably reflected with increase in binding energies and charge transfer. This is attributed to the strong chemical interaction between electron rich nitrogen of ammonia and electron deficient boron of the doped SWCNT. On doping, the density of states are changed compared to the intrinsic case and additional levels are formed near the Fermi level leading to overlap of levels with that of ammonia indicating charge transfer. The doped SWCNTs thus are expected to be a potential candidate for detecting ammonia. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

CO adsorption on small cationic, neutral, and anionic (AlN)n (n = 1–6) clusters has been investigated using density functional theory in the generalized gradient approximation. Among various possible CO adsorption sites, an N on‐top (onefold coordinated) site is found to be the most favorable one, irrespective of the charge state of the clusters. The adsorption energies of CO on the anionic (AlN)nCO (n = 2–4) clusters are greater than those on the neutral and cationic complexes. The adsorption energies on the cationic and neutral complexes reflect the odd–even oscillations, and the adsorption energies of CO on the cationic (AlN)nCO (n = 5, 6) clusters are greater than those on the neutral and anionic complexes. The adsorption energies for the different charge states decrease with increasing cluster size. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2007 相似文献

Because of their potential for chemical functionalization, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are promising candidates for the development of devices such as nanoscale sensors or transistors with novel gating mechanisms. However, the mechanisms underlying the property changes due to functionalization of CNTs still remain subject to debate. Our goal is to reliably model one possible mechanism for such chemical gating: adsorption directly on the nanotubes. Within a Kohn–Sham density functional theory framework, such systems would ideally be described using periodic boundary conditions. Truncating the tube and saturating the edges in practice often offers a broader selection of approximate exchange–correlation functionals and analysis methods. By comparing the two approaches systematically for NH3 and NO2 adsorbates on semiconducting and metallic CNTs, we find that while structural properties are less sensitive to the details of the model, local properties of the adsorbate may be as sensitive to truncation as they are to the choice of exchange–correlation functional, and are similarly challenging to compute as adsorption energies. This suggests that these adsorbate effects are nonlocal. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

The interaction of single-layer hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) on Ni(111) with molecular oxygen from a supersonic molecular beam led to a covalently bonded molecular oxygen species, which was identified as being between a superoxide and a peroxide. This is a rare example of an activated adsorption process leading to a molecular adsorbate. The amount of oxygen functionalization depended on the kinetic energy of the molecular beam. For a kinetic energy of 0.7 eV, an oxygen coverage of 0.4 ML was found. Near-edge X-ray adsorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy revealed a stronger bond of h-BN to the Ni(111) substrate in the presence of the covalently bound oxygen species. Oxygen adsorption also led to a shift of the valence bands to lower binding energies. Subsequent temperature-programmed X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that the oxygen boron bonds are stable up to approximately 580 K, when desorption, and simultaneously, etching of h-BN set in. The experimental results were substantiated by density functional theory calculations, which provided insight to the adsorption geometry, the adsorption energy and the reaction pathway. 相似文献

The open edge reconstruction of half‐saturated (6,0) zigzag carbon nanotube (CNT) was introduced by density functional calculations. The multistep rearrangement was demonstrated as a regioselective process to generate a defective edge with alternating pentagons and heptagons. Not only the thermal stability was found to be enhanced significantly after reconstruction but also the total spin of CNT was proved to be reduced gradually from high‐spin septet to close‐shell singlet, revealing the critical role of deformed edge on the geometrical and magnetic properties of open‐ended CNTs. Kinetically, the initial transformation was confirmed as the rate‐determining step with relatively the largest reaction barrier and the following steps can take place spontaneously. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) were reported to have record high hydrogen storage capacities at room temperature, indicating an interaction between hydrogen and carbon matrix that is stronger than known before. Here we present a study of the interaction of hydrogen with activated charcoal, carbon nanofibers, and SWNT that disproves these earlier reports. The hydrogen storage capacity of these materials correlates with the surface area of the material, the activated charcoal having the largest. The SWNT appear to have a relatively low accessible surface area due to bundling of the tubes; the hydrogen does not enter the voids between the tubes in the bundles. Pressure-temperature curves were used to estimate the interaction potential, which was found to be 580+/-60 K. Hydrogen gas was adsorbed in amounts up to 2 wt % only at low temperatures. Molecular rotations observed with neutron scattering indicate that molecular hydrogen is present, and no significant difference was found between the hydrogen molecules adsorbed in the different investigated materials. Results from density functional calculations show molecular hydrogen bonding to an aromatic C[bond]C that is present in the materials investigated. The claims of high storage capacities of SWNT related to their characteristic morphology are unjustified. 相似文献

PBEPBE‐D3 calculations were performed to investigate how platinum (Pt) interacts with the internal and external surfaces of single‐walled pristine, Si‐, Ge‐, and Sn‐doped (6,6) carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Our calculations showed that atomic Pt demonstrates stronger binding strength on the external surfaces than the internal surface adsorption for the same type of nanotube. In cases of external surface adsorptions, Si‐, Ge‐, and Sn‐doped CNTs show comparable binding energies for Pt, at least 1.40 eV larger than pristine CNT. This enhancement can be rationalized by the strong covalent interactions between Pt and X? C (X = Si, Ge, and Sn) pairs based on structural and projected density of states analysis. In terms of internal surface adsorptions, Ge and Sn doping could significantly enhance the binding of Pt. Pt atom shows much more delocalized and bonding states inside Ge‐ and Sn‐doped CNTs, indicating multiple‐site interaction pattern when atomic Pt is confined inside the nanotubes. However, the internal surface of Si‐doped CNT presents limited enhancement in Pt adsorption with respect to that of pristine CNT because of their similar binding geometries. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

The pore structure, sorption parameters, and chemical composition of the surface of multiwalled carbon nanotubes synthesized
by catalytic pyrolysis were determined. The dependences of the amount of cholic acid adsorbed by the nanotube surface on time,
pH, and concentration of an equilibrium solution were studied. Physical adsorption of cholic acid is mainly the outcome of
nonspecific interactions between the acid and the surface of the nanotubes.

We have investigated, using first‐principles calculations, the role of a substitutional carbon atom on the geometric stability of boron nitride monolayers, nanotubes, and nanocones. It is shown that the formation of energy depends on the number of atoms for the monolayers and on the diameter for the tubes. It is also found, for the carbon‐doped boron nitride nanotubes, that the value for the strain energy approaches the one obtained for nondoped tubes with increasing diameter. For the structural stability, we have verified that the doping, which introduces an excess of nitrogen or boron, makes each structure more favorable in its reverse atmosphere, i.e., excess of nitrogen is more stable in a boron‐rich growth environment, whereas excess of boron is preferred in a nitrogen‐rich condition. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The dispersion of highly hydrophobic carbon materials such as carbon nanotubes in biological media is a challenging issue. Indeed, the nonspecific adsorption of proteins occurs readily when the nanotubes are introduced in biological media; therefore, a methodology to control adsorption is in high demand. To address this issue, we developed a bifunctional linker derived from pyrene that selectively enables or prevents the adsorption of proteins on single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). We demonstrated that it is possible to decrease or completely suppress the adsorption of proteins on the nanotube sidewall by using proper functionalization (either covalent or noncovalent). By subsequently activating the functional groups on the nanotube derivatives, protein adsorption can be recovered and, therefore, controlled. Our approach is simple, straightforward, and potentially suitable for other biomolecules that contain thio or amino groups available for coupling. 相似文献

A DFT study on the healing of N‐vacancy defects in boron nitride nanosheets and nanotubes by a methylene molecule 下载免费PDF全文
In the present work, density functional theory calculations are used to investigate the healing mechanism of a N‐vacancy defect in boron nitride nanosheet (BNNS) or nanotube (BNNT) with a CH2 molecule. The healing process starts with the chemisorption of CH2 at the defect site, followed by its dehydrogenation over the surface. Next, a H2 molecule is produced which can be easily released from the surface due to its small adsorption energy. For the dehydrogenation of CH2 molecule over the defective BNNS or BNNT, the first C? H bond dissociation is the rate determining step. Our results indicate that the dehydrogenation of CH2 over BNNS is both thermodynamically and kinetically more favorable than over BNNT. Besides, this study proposes a novel method for achieving C‐doped BNNSs and BNNTs. Given that the healing process proceeds without using a metal catalyst, therefore, no any purification is needed to remove the catalyst. 相似文献

By performing extensive density functional theory calculations combined with non-equilibrium Green's function technique, we predict the rhombic porous carbon nitride nanoribbon (rPCNNR) and the vertical rPCNNR junction exhibiting high thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) values of 0.57 and 2.1 at room temperature respectively. Theoretical results reveal that the ZT value of rPCNNR is significantly larger than that of armchair graphene nanoribbon with the almost same width (~0.035) due to the large Seebeck coefficients and the significantly decreased thermal conductance of rPCNNR, where the phonon states are blocked by the built-in porous structure and rhombic edge in rPCNNR. The ZT value is further enhanced to be 2.1 in the vertical rPCNNR junction, which is achieved by the synergy effect between the dramatically suppressed thermal conductance in in-plane direction due to the weak van der Waals interaction between two rPCNNRs, the almost unchanged Seebeck coefficients, and the good electron conductivity provided by the strong overlapping of delocalized VB- and CB-derived states in the scattering region. These presented findings highlight rPCNNR as a promising candidate in building flexible devices with high thermoelectric performance. 相似文献

Nitrogen-doped bamboo-structured carbon nanotubes have been successfully grown using a series of cobalt/molybdenum catalysts. The morphology and structure of the nanotubes were analysed by transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The level of nitrogen doping, as determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, was found to range between 0.5 to 2.5 at.%. The growth of bamboo-structured nanotubes in the presence of nitrogen, in preference to single-walled and multi-walled nanotubes, was due to the greater binding energy of nitrogen for cobalt in the catalyst compared to the binding strength of carbon to cobalt, as determined by density functional theory. 相似文献

In this study, we use a very simple scheme to achieve range separation of a total exchange–correlation functional. We have utilized this methodology to combine a short‐range pure density functional theory (DFT) functional with a corresponding long‐range pure DFT, leading to a “Range‐separated eXchange–Correlation” (RXC) scheme. By examining the performance of a range of standard exchange–correlation functionals for prototypical short‐ and long‐range properties, we have chosen B‐LYP as the short‐range functional and PBE‐B95 as the long‐range counterpart. The results of our testing using a more diverse range of data sets show that, for properties that we deem to be short‐range in nature, the performance of this prescribed RXC‐DFT protocol does resemble that of B‐LYP in most cases, and vice versa. Thus, this RXC‐DFT protocol already provides meaningful numerical results. Furthermore, we envisage that the general RXC scheme can be easily implemented in computational chemistry software packages. This study paves a way for further refinement of such a range‐separation technique for the development of better performing DFT procedures. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献
