“…A literature review shows that a positive value of l 2 is an indication of steric repulsion, which is a destabilizing interaction, while a negative value indicates an attractive force, which is a stabilizing interaction. 64 From the calculated values of r(r), V 2 r(r), V(r), G(r), E(r) and l 2 for the MoS 2 doped surface and the adsorbed gas summarized in Table 6, negative values of H(r) were observed from N 40 -N 37 , Mo 8 -S 11 /H 37 and Si 36 -N 38 , indicating that the interactions at these points were covalent; whereas other bond formations had positive values, indicating strong electrostatic bonding. The density of all electrons of the studied surface was observed to be in the order of 0.993 a.u.…”
