Proton conductivity of boron nanotubular systems

We have studied the possibility of using single-layer boron triangular and alpha-structured nanotubes as substances with proton conductivity. Proposed and studied various ways to the migration of a proton on the surface of single-walled nanotubes in the implementation of the two possible mechanisms...

description We have studied the possibility of using single-layer boron triangular and alpha-structured nanotubes as substances with proton conductivity. Proposed and studied various ways to the migration of a proton on the surface of single-walled nanotubes in the implementation of the two possible mechanisms of migration - hopping and step-by-step. We conducted semi-empirical quantum-mechanical calculations of the proton transfer process on the outer surface of boron nanotubes and constructed surface profiles of potential energy, which allowed us to calculate the activation energy of the proton hopping from one boron atom of the surface to another. This feature can be used to obtain the dependence of the nanotube relative conductivity from the temperature.
