Augmenting the sensing aptitude of hydrogenated graphene by crafting with defects and dopants
Abstract
<p>Density functional theory (DFT) level calculations were performed to study the interaction of hydrogenated graphene (CH) monolayer towards methane (CH<sub>4</sub>) gas molecules. The structural, electronic and gas sensing properties of pure, defected and light metal-doped CH monolayer were investigated. For the pristine CH, the estimated binding energy of CH<sub>4</sub> fell short of the desired physisorption range and limit its gas sensing application at ambient conditions. However, upon crafting defects on pure CH layer by introducing hydrogen vacancies, a sharp increase in adsorption energies were observed when the CH<sub>4</sub> molecules approached the defected sites of CH. Further, the effect of metal doping was studied by uniformly distributing light metal adatoms on CH monolayer which significantly enhanced the CH<sub>4</sub> adsorption. To have better accuracy in calculating adsorption energies, we have incorporated van der Waals type corrections to our calculations for these weakly interacting systems.</p>
