The first-principles method based on density functional theory has been used to investigate the adsorption performance of NO/NO2 molecules on intrinsic, Ag-doped, Pt-doped and Au-doped graphene. Results show that graphene doped with Ag/Pt/Au has shorter final adsorption distance, larger adsorption energy and charge transfer amount with NO/NO2 molecules than intrinsic graphene, and the charge densities of doped graphene and NO/NO2 molecules overlap effectively. Therefore, doping graphene with noble metals can greatly enhance the adsorption between graphene and NO/NO2 molecules. Analysis also reveals that Au-doped graphene has the strongest adsorption effect on NO/NO2 molecules, followed by Ag-doped graphene, while Pt-doped graphene has the weakest role on the adsorption of NO/NO2 molecules. The work conducted in this research provides a theoretical guidance for the application of NO/NO2 gas sensors based on graphene.

Adsorption of molecular oxygen with a triplet ground state on Fe -, Co -, Ni -, Ru -, Rh -, Pd -, OS -, Ir - and Pt -doped graphene is studied using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The calculations show that O 2 molecule is chemisorbed on the doped graphene sheets with large adsorption energies ranging from -0.653 eV to -1.851 eV and the adsorption process is irreversible. Mulliken atomic charge analysis of the structure shows that charge transfer from doped graphene sheets to O 2 molecule. The amounts of transferred charge are between 0.375e- to 0.650e-, indicating a considerable change in the structures conductance. These results imply that the effect of O 2 adsorption on transition metal-doped graphene structures can alter the possibility of using these materials as a toxic-gas (carbon monoxide, hydrogen fluoride, etc.) sensor.
