Abstract
  • The role of structural defects on the adsorption of NO2 on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is analyzed here by means of both statical density functional theory calculations and Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics and further confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements. The interaction of a NO2 molecule with an active site produced by a single vacancy on the sidewall follows two possible reaction routes, leading to the formation of a C-N bond or to dissociation of NO2. Accounting for defective adsorption sites allows a better understanding of microscopic mechanisms involved in technological applications of CNTs, e.g., gas-sensing devices. (literal)
