Silicon Carbide Nanotubes

Vacancy defects are common defects formed in the syntheses of silicon carbide nanotubes (SiCNTs) and seriously impact the electronic structures of the nanotubes. With first-principle calculations based on density functional theory (DFT), vacancy defective (6,2) SiCNTs are studied. Vacancies form a pair of fivefold and ninefold rings. Carbon vacancy introduces an occupied defect level near the top of the valence band and an unoccupied level in the conduction band. Three defect levels are found in the band gap of the SiCNT with a silicon vacancy. These results are helpful for investigations on SiCNT devices and sensors.

Using first-principle calculations employing density functional theory (DFT) the stabilityof a (3, 3) carbon nanotube (CNT) intercalated with lithium atoms, with respect to their position aswell as Li/C ratio, is studied. On varying the distance of a lithium atom from the axis of the CNT in theradial direction, through the center of a graphitic hexagon, minimum of energy of the system occursat a distance of 3.8 °A from the axis. Keeping the distance of the lithium atom from the tube axis fixedat 3.8 °A, intercalation energy (E) was calculated while the number of lithium atoms is varied fromone (Li1C12, −0.511 eV) to six (Li6C12, −0.615 eV). It is found that the intercalation becomes morefavorable with the increase in number of lithium atoms intercalated and increase in the symmetryof the intercalated system. The maximum intercalation energy difference between successive lithiumatom additions lay within 0.1 eV.

Abstract We have systematically studied the effect of Fe co-doped on electronic and magnetic properties of wurtzite gallium nitride (GaN) based on the framework of density functional theory (DFT). It is found that GaN doped with Fe at Ga site is more stable than that at N-site. We calculate the electronic structure of pure and single Fe doped GaN within GGA and GGA + U method and find that Fe doped GaN is a magnetic semiconductor with the total magnetization of 5μ B . The magnetic coupling between Fe spins in Fe-doped GaN is an antiferromagnetic (AFM) under the super-exchange mechanism.

Adsorption Of Water

We present the results from first principle calculations of H2O adsorption on oxygen-covered Fe (100) surface. The calculations are based on a density-functional theory, surface modeling which uses supercell slab models. As a surface oxygen coverage increases, the surface is not activated, which makes the adsorption of water molecules on Fe surface unfavorable. It has been found that the surface covered oxygen exerts an influence on the adsorption of H2O molecule on Fe surface.
