We have performed first-principles calculation to investigate the adsorption of a single palladium atom on the surface of the pristine and boron-or nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The results show that for the adsorption of a single palladium atom on the pristine CNT surface, the most stable

A carbon hybrid material system consisting of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and fullerene (C 60 ) has been investigated using the first-principles methods. Through combining metallic SWCNTs with C 60 of high electron affinity, the lithium adsorption energy on this CNT-C 60 hybrid system (Γ2.
We report the results of the first principles studies of the electronic structure of simple cubic phase of carbon crystal, which exhibits metallic behavior. The charge density analysis shows that simple cubic phase of carbon is sp 3 bonded system and confirms the promotion of one electron from 2s to
