Aniline Adsorption on the Surface of a BN Nanotube: A Computational Study [PDF]
International Journal of New Chemistry, 2014 Electrical sensitivity of a boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) was examined toward aniline (C6H5NH2) molecule by using density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G (d) level, and it was found that the adsorption energy (Ead) of aniline on ...
