A novel doping scheme for graphene was recently realized experimentally by creating different vacancy complexes doped with a transition metal (TM) atom [nanoLett. 12, 141 (2012)]. This provides a new reliable way to modifying the electronic structure and transport property of graphene. Here, we show, by performing first-principles calculations, that the defect complex of TM@V4(a TM atom doped tetra-vacancy) in zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs) can lead to a 100% spin-polarized electron transport in a wide energy range around the Fermi energy. Analyses show that this is due to the particular atomic structure of the TM@V4complex regardless of the species of the TM atom.

In this study, the effects of 555-777 defect on Young’s modulus, fracture strength and fracture strain of armchair graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs) and zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs) were investigated by using Molecular Dynamics simulations under uniaxial tension. The simulation results show that 555-777 defect significantly reduces the fracture strength and fracture strain of AGNRs and ZGNRs, but has little effect on Young's modulus. The influence of 555-777 defect on the mechanical properties of AGNRs is greater than that of ZGNRs. This study provides a better understanding of mechanical properties of graphene nanoribbons.

Nitrogen doped graphene nanoribbons have multiconfigurational ground state. Doping affects cationic, not anionic states. Restricted methods underestimate ionization potentials, overestimate electron affinities, produce large errors for reorganization energies.
