چکیده

We design nickel-doped and nitrogen-doped carbon nanocones with various amounts of buckling that feature square-planar, (approximate) tetrahedral, and octahedral coordination. The optimized geometries and electronic structures of these novel metallocarbon complexes are calculated by using the B3LYP (Gaussian03) and GGA-BLYP (ADF) exchange-correlation functionals. We analyze buckling and stability of the nanocones, and discuss their potential for additional functionalization at the metallic site.

Computational studies of carbon decorated boron nitride nanocones

Density functional theory ,(DFT) calculations have been performed to investigate the properties ofcarbon decorated (C-decorated) models of boron nitride (BN) nanocones. To this aim, the apex andtip of nanocone have been substituted by the carbon atoms to represent the C-decorated models. Theresults indicated that dipole moments and energy gaps could reveal the effects of C-decorations onthe pro...

Carbon and BN nanocones as nano carriers for 5-Fluorouracil, a DFT study

5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is an anticancer drug. In this work, we have investigated the electronic properties and topological analysis of interaction between 5-FU and carbon nanocone and BN nanocone. The structural stability of isomer complexes of 5-FU with carbon nanocone and BN nanocone have been investigated for two position of interactions. We have found that the most stable complexes are forme...

Young s Modulus of Single and Double Walled Carbon Nanocones Using Finite Element Method(TECHNICAL NOTE)

In this paper a three-dimensional finite element (FE) model of carbon nanocones (CNCs) is proposed and used for obtaining Young\'s modulus of CNCs. In this model, stretching and bending forces between carbon atoms are simulated using truss elements in ANSYS software. Then the model is subjected to the tension and by obtaining the stiffness of the CNC and using elasticity theory, Young’s modulus...

Nested boron nitride and carbon-boron nitride nanocones

In this letter we extend previously established results for nested carbon nanocones to both nested boron nitride and carbon-boron nitride nanocones. Based purely on mechanical principles and classical mathematical modelling techniques, we determine the energetically favourable structures for nested boron nitride and carbon-boron nitride nanocones. While only three apex angles for boron nitride ...
