A computational study at the level of density functional theory (DFT) was carried out to investigate the influence of carbon doping (C-doping) on the 11B and 14N quadrupole coupling constants (CQ) in the (6,0) single-walled boron-nitride nanotube (BNNT). To this aim, a 10 Å length of BNNT consisting of 24 B atoms and 24 N atoms was selected where the end atoms are capped by hydrogen atoms. To follow the purpose, six C atoms were doped instead of three B and three N atoms as a central ring in the surface of the C-doped BNNT. The calculated CQ values for both optimized BNNT systems, raw and C-doped, reveal different electrostatic environments in the mentioned systems. It was also demonstrated that the end nuclei have the largest CQ values in both considered BNNT systems.

Dopant Atoms

Based upon density functional theory, we investigate the influence of oxygen dopant atoms that make a boroxol ring on the electrostatic properties of a zigzag (10, 0) boron nitride nanotube in which three of the nitrogen atoms are replaced by oxygen dopant atoms. The electric field gradient (EFG) tensors at the sites of 11B and 14N nuclei were calculated and converted to quadrupole coupling constants (CQ) in the two models of a perfect and a boroxol ring O-doped (10, 0) single-walled boron nitride nanotube (BNNT). Our calculations showed that the CQ values of the boron and nitrogen nuclei along the length of a perfect BNNT are divided into layers. Among the layers the mouth layers have the largest CQ magnitudes. In the doped model, in addition to the mouth layers, the CQ values of those nitrogen nuclei which directly bond to the boroxol ring are increased. However, the CQ values of the boron nuclei that make the boroxol ring and directly bond to the boroxol ring are decreased.

Background: Boron Nitride Nanotubes (BNNTs) have recently emerged as an interesting field of study, because they could be used for the realization of developed, integrated and compact nanostructures to be formulated. BNNTs with similar surface morphology, alternating B and N atoms completely substitute for C atoms in a graphitic-like sheet with nearly no alterations in atomic spacing, with uniformity in dispersion in the solution, and readily applicable in biomedical applications with no obvious toxicity. Also demonstrating a good cell interaction and cell targeting. Aim and Objective: With a purpose of increasing the field of BNNT for drug delivery, a theoretical investigation of the interaction of Melatonin, Vitamin C, Glutathione and lipoic acid antioxidants using (9, 0) zigzag BNNTs is shown using density functional theory. Methods: The geometries corresponding to Melatonin, Vitamin C, Glutathione and lipoic acid and BNNT with different lengths were individually optimized with the DMOL3 program at the LDA/ DNP (fine) level of theory. Results: In the presence of external electric field Melatonin, Vitamin C, Glutathione and lipoic acid could be absorbed considerably on BNNT with lengths 22 and 29 Å, as the adsorption energy values in the presence of external electric field are considerably increased. Conclusion: The external electric field is an appropriate technique for adsorbing and storing antioxidants on BNNTs. Moreover, it is believed that applying the external electric field may be a proper method for controlling release rate of drugs.

The 19F quadrupole coupling constants in CF4, CHF3, CClF3 and CHClF2 are reported. The measurements were carried out temperature dependent using the time differential perturbed angular distribution method (TDPAD). The temperature dependence can be satisfactorily described in the framework of the Bayer-Kushida theory. A simple model is used to explain the appearance of H-F and Cl-F coupling constants in CHF3/CHClF2 and CClF3, respectively.
