To understand the chemical doping effect on the lithium (Li) storage of graphene, we have performed first-principles calculations to study the adsorption and diffusion of Li adatoms on boron (B)- and nitrogen (N)-doped graphenes, which include individual and paired B (and N) dopants in graphene.

LAP crystal is an excellent nonlinear optical material and it has some unexplained specificities, which makes the interaction between groups in molecule received much attention. In this paper, the first-principles calculations are performed to investigate the intergroup interactions by the electronic structure and optical properties of LAP crystal. The energy gap of LAP crystal is 5.02 eV, indicating that the electronic transition is easier than KDP crystal. The strong electronic interaction between the carboxyl, phosphate and guanidine groups is found. In addition, since the LAP molecule has the greatest dipole in [010] direction and the electronic transitions are most likely to occur between the carboxyl group, phosphate and guanidine groups located on both ends of the molecule along [010] direction, the LAP crystal shows specific optical properties in this direction. The results reveal the correlations between the optical properties and the intergroup interactions of LAP crystal.

By using the first-principles methods based on density function theory (DFT), the effects of boron(B)/phosphorus(P) pair co-doping on the electrical properties of zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have been investigated. We calculated the formation energies and band structures of (6, 0) metallic and (8, 0) semiconducting SWNTs with different B/P co-doping sites and concentrations. The obtained formation energies suggest that the B/P co-doping configurations are energetically stable structures and the B and P tend to form a B–P bond. It shows that an energy gap is opened by B/P co-doping in (6, 0) metallic SWNTs and the metallic carbon nanotubes are converted into semiconductors. For the (8, 0) semiconducting SWNTs, B/P co-doping influences the band structure, but it does not change the attributes essentially and the SWNTs are still semiconducting. It was also found that the band structures depend on the doping concentration as well as the doping site of B/P pair.

Study of corundum-type chromium oxide ([Formula: see text]-Cr2O3) crystal doped with the nitrogen and magnesium impurities has been carried out through the use of first-principles calculations based on the density functional theory (DFT) and generalized gradient approximation (GGA). Three cases corresponding different impurity–impurity distances have been considered. Structural, electronic and magnetic properties have been studied for all co-doping cases. The [Formula: see text]-type electrical conductivity was found when distance between the Mg and N atoms is equal to 4.10 Å. The results obtained are consistent with the available experimental data.
