Abstract

Substitutional doping of gold and copper atoms in a (4, 4) silver single-wall nanotube has been investigated using first-principles simulations. It is found that the Au- and Cu-substitutional doping of the tip-suspended (4, 4) Ag tube can maintain the hollow tubular structure at different alloy compositions due to the existence of a local minimum in the string tension variation with their unit cell lengths. The bonding energy differences between the mono-elements and hetero-elements and string tension may play important roles in suppressing the “self-purification” effects so that the nanoalloy tubes can be formed. Analysis of the band structure suggests that the number of conduction channels of the Ag–Au alloy tubes may lie between the pure (4, 4) Ag and Au tubes.
