Abstract

The structural stability and electrochemical performance of intrinsic and B doped T-graphene nanotubes with different tube lengths are systematically studied by using first-principles calculations within the framework of density functional theory (DFT). The results show that with the increase of tube length, the adsorption energy of both intrinsic and B doped T-graphene nanotubes exhibits regular oscillations, and B doping is beneficial for elevating the adsorption ability of T-graphene nanotubes. The density of states show that intrinsic T-graphene nanotubes are zero band gap semiconductors, and the orbitals’ electronic states cross the Fermi level to form a p-type semiconductor, indicating that B doping greatly improves the conductivity of the system. The results of migration behavior demonstrate that B doping can effectively reduce the diffusion barrier of lithium ions on their surface, especially in B doped T-graphene nanotubes with a tube length of N = 1, resulting in more effective migration behavior and excellent rate performance. These findings provide a theoretical basis for the development and application of negative electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries.
