A theoretical analysis of the effect of the hydrogenation of graphene to graphane on its mechanical properties
Literature Information

We investigated the effect of the hydrogenation of graphene to graphane on its mechanical properties using first-principles calculations based on density-functional theory. The hydrogenation reduces the ultimate strengths in all three tested deformation modes – armchair, zigzag, and biaxial – and the in-plane stiffness by 1/3. The Poisson ratio was reduced from 0.178 to 0.078, a 56% decrease. However, the ultimate strain in zigzag deformation was increased by 8.7%. The shear mode elastic constants are more sensitive than longitudinal ones to hydrogenation. The fourth and fifth order longitudinal mode elastic constants are inert to the hydrogenation, in contrast to a large decrease of those in second and third order. The hydrogenation does not change the monotonic decrement of the Poisson ratio with increasing pressure, but the rate is tripled. Our results indicate that graphene–graphane systems could be used for hydrogen storage with high speed of charge–discharge of hydrogen.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
