Covalent functionalization represents a promising avenue to tailor the electronic properties of carbon nanotubes. Recent experimental work has shown that cycloaddition of fluorinated olefins represents an effective approach to reduce the off-currents of mixed nanotube mats for transistor applications. We have studied the electronic structure characteristics of the corresponding [2 + 2] cycloaddition using dispersion-corrected density functional calculations.

We have studied the structural and electronic stability of a helical ribbon of flavin mononucleotide wrapping around single-walled carbon nanotubes using first-principles density-functional calculations. The helical ribbon is formed through hydrogen bonding between adjacent uracil moieties of the isoalloxazine ring and stabilized through concentric pi-pi interactions. The electronic structure calculations reveal quantum electronic stability associated with lattice registry and band alignment between the helical assembly and the (8,6) nanotube.
