Novel structure and abnormal electronic properties of ultra-thin BC2N nanotubes from first-principles investigation

The role of healed N-vacancy defective BC2N sheet and nanotube by NO molecule in oxidation of NO and CO gas molecules

“…Moreover, the adsorption of atomic and molecular hydrogen on BC 2 NNTs depends on the ionic nature of the tube surface, which may be employed in energy storage applications or molecular sensors. Wang et al [56] investigated the structure, stability and electronic properties of ultra-thin BC 2 NNTs. They indicated that the stability of BC 2 NNTs is sensitive to both the number of B-N bonds and the relative ordering of the CNT and BNNT segments.…”
