AbstractIn this paper, the stable configuration and the electronic and magnetic properties of Ge adsorption on defected graphene are studied by first-principles calculations. The vacancy defect induced magnetism in graphene depends upon the characteristics of covalent bonding between C atoms near the vacancy site. Substitutional boron can hole-dope graphene while nitrogen electron-dopes graphene. Therefore, the electronic properties of graphene are changed by B or N doping, turning graphene into a metal. However, substitutional B and N do not induce magnetism in graphene. On the other hand, vacancy and substitutional B defects enhance Ge adsorption on graphene, though N doping seems to have little effect on Ge adsorption. Net magnetic moments are induced in Ge-adsorbed graphene (GeB-doped and GeN-doped graphene), which is caused mainly by the p orbital electrons of Ge atom. No magnetic moment is found when Ge is adsorbed on vacancy-containing graphene. © 2011 Elsevier B.V. All Rights Reserved.
