Theoretical Investigation of Hydrogen Sulfide Adsorption on the Surface of F Functionalized Carbon and Carbon Silicon Nanotubes (7,0) in the Gas Phase and Water

In order to develop a sensor for the detection of toxic H_2S molecule,the interactions of C–NT and CSi–NT with H_2S molecule were investigated by density functional theory calculations. The effects of F functionalization and water on the adsorption of H_2S gas on C–NT and CSi–NT surfaces were investigated. The studied nanotubes can interact with the H_2S molecule effectively and so adsorptions of H_2S on studied nanotubes are exothermic and possible from the energetic viewpoint. Replacing the C atoms of C–NT with Si atoms may be a good strategy for improving the sensitivity of C–NT towards H_2S. F functionalization and water cause an increase and decrease in the absolute adsorption energy（Ead） values of H_2S on the studied nanotubes,respectively. There are good linearity dependencies between Ead and orbital energy values of studied nanotubes. The Ead and orbital energy values of studied nanotubes can be considered as important parameters to propose suitable nanotubes with increased potential of H_2S adsorption.

氮掺杂Stone-Wales缺陷石墨烯吸附H_(2)S的密度泛函理论研究

利用密度泛函理论研究H_(2)S分子在氮掺杂Stone-Wales(SW)缺陷石墨烯上的吸附行为,通过吸附能、差分电荷密度、Bader电荷和电子态密度等分析了H_(2)S分子在SW缺陷石墨烯及氮掺杂SW缺陷石墨烯上的吸附差异。计算结果表明氮原子掺杂可以有效提升H_(2)S分子与石墨烯表面的相互作用,并加强二者之间的电荷转移。其中,氮原子主要作为电子传递的桥梁参与H_(2)S与石墨烯表面之间的电荷转移。H_(2)S分子被选择性吸附在SW缺陷及氮掺杂SW缺陷石墨烯的五元碳环中心处,这说明五元碳环的电荷分布促进H_(2)S分子的吸附行为。
