Based upon density functional theory, we investigate the influence of oxygen dopant atoms that make a boroxol ring on the electrostatic properties of a zigzag (10, 0) boron nitride nanotube in which three of the nitrogen atoms are replaced by oxygen dopant atoms. The electric field gradient (EFG) tensors at the sites of 11B and 14N nuclei were calculated and converted to quadrupole coupling constants (CQ) in the two models of a perfect and a boroxol ring O-doped (10, 0) single-walled boron nitride nanotube (BNNT). Our calculations showed that the CQ values of the boron and nitrogen nuclei along the length of a perfect BNNT are divided into layers. Among the layers the mouth layers have the largest CQ magnitudes. In the doped model, in addition to the mouth layers, the CQ values of those nitrogen nuclei which directly bond to the boroxol ring are increased. However, the CQ values of the boron nuclei that make the boroxol ring and directly bond to the boroxol ring are decreased.

A computational study at the level of density functional theory (DFT) was carried out to investigate the influence of carbon doping (C-doping) on the 11B and 14N quadrupole coupling constants (CQ) in the (6,0) single-walled boron-nitride nanotube (BNNT). To this aim, a 10 Å length of BNNT consisting of 24 B atoms and 24 N atoms was selected where the end atoms are capped by hydrogen atoms. To follow the purpose, six C atoms were doped instead of three B and three N atoms as a central ring in the surface of the C-doped BNNT. The calculated CQ values for both optimized BNNT systems, raw and C-doped, reveal different electrostatic environments in the mentioned systems. It was also demonstrated that the end nuclei have the largest CQ values in both considered BNNT systems.

The 19F quadrupole coupling constants in CF4, CHF3, CClF3 and CHClF2 are reported. The measurements were carried out temperature dependent using the time differential perturbed angular distribution method (TDPAD). The temperature dependence can be satisfactorily described in the framework of the Bayer-Kushida theory. A simple model is used to explain the appearance of H-F and Cl-F coupling constants in CHF3/CHClF2 and CClF3, respectively.
