Abstract
AbstractThe effect of hydrogenation of (4, 0) and (3, 0) carbon nanotubes on the Stone–Wales transformation is studied in the framework of the nonorthogonal tight-binding model. It is shown that the atomic hydrogen adsorption can lead to both a decrease and an increase in the barriers for the direct and inverse transformations depending on the orientation of a rotating C–C bond with respect to the nanotube axis. The characteristic times of formation and annealing the Stone–Wales defects have been estimated. The Young’s moduli have been calculated.
