Giant thermopower effects from molecular physisorption on carbon nanotubes.
Results are presented of in situ studies of the thermoelectric power and four-probe resistance of single-walled carbon nanotube films during the adsorption of cyclic hydrocarbons C(6)H(2n) (n=3-6). The size of the change in these transport parameters is found to be related to the pi electron population of the molecule, suggesting the coupling between these pi electrons and those in the nanotube...
متن کاملAb initio investigation of molecular hydrogen physisorption on graphene and carbon nanotubes
Density-functional theory is used to investigate hydrogen physisorption on a graphene layer and on single wall carbon nanotubes. Both external and internal adsorption sites of 9, 0 and 10, 0 carbon nanotubes have been studied with the hydrogen molecular axis oriented parallel or perpendicular to the nanotube wall. A range of hydrogen molecule binding sites has been examined and it is found that...
متن کاملFirst-principles study of physisorption of nucleic acid bases on small-diameter carbon nanotubes.
We report the results of our first-principles study based on density functional theory on the interaction of the nucleic acid base molecules adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), thymine (T), and uracil (U), with a single-walled carbon nanotube (CNT). Specifically, the focus is on the physisorption of base molecules on the outer wall of a (5, 0) metallic CNT possessing one of the smallest dia...
متن کاملMolecular physisorption on graphene and carbon nanotubes: A comparative ab initio study
The results of ab initio density functional theory calculations of molecular physisorption on a number of different adsorption sites on a graphene sheet and on a (10, 0) single walled carbon nanotube are discussed. Both the Vosko-Wilk-Nusair (VWN) local density approximation (LDA) functional and the Perdew-Wang (PW91) generalized gradient approximation (GGA) functional were employed in calculat...
متن کاملChemi- vs physisorption in the radical functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes under microwaves
The effect of microwaves on the functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) by the diazonium method was studied. The usage of a new approach led to the identification of the strength of the interaction (physical or chemical) between the functional groups and the carbon nanotube surface. Moreover, the nature (chemical formula) of the adsorbed/grafted functional groups was determi...
