Chemisorption of Molecular Hydrogen on Carbon Nanotubes: A Route to Effective Hydrogen Storage

The energetics of the chemisorption of molecular hydrogen on small-diameter armchair carbon nanotubes has been investigated using first-principles density functional theory (DFT). The adsorption of hydrogen was examined at a range of coverages, from low to full monolayer coverage. Several pathways f...
