▎ 摘  要

Using the density functional theory combined with both the van der Waals correction and the effective screening medium method, we investigate the energetics and electronic structures of CO and CO2 molecules adsorbed on graphene surfaces in the field-effect-transistor structure with respect to the external electric field by the excess electrons/holes. The binding energies of CO and CO2 molecules to graphene monotonically increase with increasing hole and electron concentrations. The increase occurs regardless of the molecular conformations to graphene and the counter electrode, indicating that the carrier injection substantially enhances the molecular adsorption on graphene. Injected carriers also modulate the stable molecular conformation, which is metastable in the absence of an electric field. Published by AIP Publishing.
