In this research, geometrical structures of armchair single walled boron nitride nanotube (SWBNNT) and armchair single walled aluminum nitride nanotube (SWAlNNT) were optimized by Density Functional Theory (DFT) in the gas phase, both having the same length of 5 angstrom and n=9, m=9. B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory have been used to determine and compare electronic properties, n...

Boron nitride nanotubes were functionalized with microperoxidase-11 in aqueous media, showing improved catalytic performance due to a strong electron coupling between the active centre of microperoxidase-11 and boron nitride nanotubes.

To determine the non-bonded interaction between methyl benzoate and boron nitridenanotube, we focused on an armchair single-wall boron nitride nanotube (9,9) With length 5 angstroms.The geometry of molecules was optimized using B3LYP method with 6-31g* basis set. Also reactivityand stability of methyl benzoate and boron nitride nanotube (9,9) was checked. Then NBO, FREQ,...

Graphene-boron nitride monolayer heterostructures contain adjacent electrically active and insulating regions in a continuous, single-atom thick layer. To date structures were grown at low pressure, resulting in irregular shapes and edge direction, so studies of the graphene-boron nitride interface were restricted to the microscopy of nanodomains. Here we report templated growth of single cryst...

One dimensional boron nitride nanostructures promise many interesting applications in biomedical, semiconductor and hydrogen storage and other fields. We have synthesized Boron Nitride in various nanoforms by a high temperature solid state reaction between boric acid and urea in a commercial microwave furnace. The formation of boron nitride was established from the binding energies for boron an...

This Research Article reports on the enhancement of the thermal transport properties of nanocomposite materials containing hexagonal boron nitride in poly(vinyl alcohol) through room-temperature atmospheric pressure direct-current microplasma processing. Results show that the microplasma treatment leads to exfoliation of the hexagonal boron nitride in isopropyl alcohol, reducing the number of s...

Continuum based models are presented here for certain boron nitride and carbon nanostructures. In particular, certain fullerene interactions, C(60)-C(60), B(36)N(36)-B(36)N(36) and C(60)-B(36)N(36), and fullerene-nanotube oscillator interactions, C(60)-boron nitride nanotube, C(60)-carbon nanotube, B(36)N(36)-boron nitride nanotube and B(36)N(36)-carbon nanotube, are studied using the Lennard-...
