Abstract:Different types of substitution of one or two carbon atoms in (7, 7) single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) by two Titanium atoms have been systemically studied within density functional theory based method. Fourteen different dual-Ti-doped SWCNT fragments were investigated and conformation IX doped with a Ti dimer is the most stable conformation. According to natural population and frontier molecular orbital analyses, the relative substitution positions of those two Ti atoms have significant impact on the loca… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
