concentrations of 6.25%, 12.5%, and 25% and “armchair”(5, 5) carbon-nitrogen nanotube
with nitrogen atom concentrations of 10% and 20% is calculated within the density functional
theory approach. The calculations are carried out taking into account optimizations of both
the longitudinal and transverse nanotube structural parameters. The structure is distorted
significantly both lengthwise and across with increasing nitrogen concentrations. In …
