Fullertubes, that is, fullerenes consisting of a carbon nanotube moiety capped by hemifullerene ends, are emerging carbon nanomaterials whose properties show both fullerene and carbon nanotube (CNT) traits. Albeit it may be expected that their electronic states show a certain resemblance to those of the extended nanotube, such a correlation has not yet been found or described. Here it shows a scanning...
Ultrasensitive gas sensors have been fabricated depending on novel 2D materials. The adsorption behavior of diatomic molecules (H2, HF, N2, CO, O2, and NO) on the 2D‐SnP3 monolayer is investigated by utilizing first‐principle calculations for seeking the applications of sensing and detecting gases. H2 molecule displays weak adsorption effects on the SnP3 monolayer, while N2, CO, HF, and O2 show a...
