The adsorption geometries of CH[Formula: see text] species (x = 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4) on the metal embedded graphene (M–graphene) substrates and the change in electronic structure and magnetic property of systems are analyzed using the first-principles calculations. The calculated results show that the doped metal atoms can provide transferred electrons to neighboring carbon atoms at defective site and thus exhibit positive charges, as well as turning the adsorption sensing of M–graphene for detecting CH[Formula: see text] species. Compared with the adsorbed CH3, the adsorption of C, CH and CH2 species exhibit more stability ([Formula: see text]3.0 eV) on M–graphene. Besides, more stable C atom on M–graphene can effectively turn the magnetic property of systems as compared with other species. This result provides a useful reference for fabricating the functional metal–graphene complex as gas sensors and catalytic materials.

Lanthanum Oxide (La2O3 ) nanoparticles are successfully synthesized by simple reflux method using starting materials Lanthanum Nitrate and Urea. Lanthanum Oxide (La2O3 ) have multiple applications such as gas sensors, catalyst, Hydrogen storage, catalysts, photocatalytic wet oxidation etc. This paper mainly focuses on the synthesis of Lanthanum Oxide (La2O3 ) nanoparticles at different precursor concentration at different reaction time on the properties of the synthesized Lanthanum Oxide (La2O3) nanoparticles can be explored. The synthesized samples were calcinated 500ºC for 1hr. The Lanthanum Oxide (La2O3) nanoparticles were investigated by XRD, FTIR, SEM, & UV studies. The morphology and particle size were analyzed by SEM. The structure of the crystallites was investigated using powder XRD technique. The FTIR analysis was used to examine the functional groups present in the synthesized Lanthanum Oxide (La2O3) nanoparticles. The optical band gap was calculated from the UV-Vis absorption spectra

As the depletion of traditional fossil fuels and environmental pollution become serious problems for human society, researchers are actively looking for renewable energy sources. Since hydrogen energy is considered a clean, efficient, and renewable alternative energy source, it is regarded as the most promising option. In this context, how to store hydrogen safely and efficiently has become the major challenge that hinders the actual application. To fill this gap, this paper proposes to utilize surfactant-modified graphene for hydrogen storage. Through a modified Hummers’ method and ultrasonic stripping, this study proposes to prepare graphene from graphite oxide with NaBH4. The surfactant sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) was used as a dispersant during the reduction process to produce dispersion-stabilized graphene suspensions. Then, to investigate the characteristics of the graphene suspensions, X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, TEM, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Raman, XPS, TG, and N2 adsorption–desorption tests were conducted. Finally, analytical models for hydrogen adsorption were investigated with Langmuir and Freundlich fittings. The results show that the application of SDBS can effectively reduce the agglomeration among graphene monolayers and increase the specific surface area of graphene, and that the adsorption behavior is consistent with the Freundlich adsorption model, and is a physical process.
