摘要:Density functional theory calculations were carried out to investigate the adsorption behaviors of dopamine (DPM) on the BN nanostructures in gas and solvent phases. Our results revealed that the adsorption of DPM on BN nano-cages was stronger than other BN nanotubes. It was found that the adsorption of two DPM (−1.30 eV) upon B12N12 was weaker than those of a single DPM (−1.41 eV). The Ga-doped B12N12 had better conditions for the detection of DPM than that of the Al-doped B12N12 nano-cage. The solvation effects for the most stable systems were calculated which showed that it had positive impacts upon the adsorption behavior of the applied systems than those studied in gas phase. The available results are expected to provide a useful guidance for the adsorption of DPM and generation of the new hybrid compounds.
