Popis: We report first-principles calculations on the structural, mechanical, and electronic properties of O2 molecule adsorption on different graphenes (including pristine graphene (G&ndash
O2), N(nitrogen)/B(boron)-doped graphene (G&ndash
N/B&ndash
O2), and defective graphene (G&ndash
D&ndash
O2)) under equibiaxial strain. Our calculation results reveal that G&ndash
O2 possesses the highest binding energy, indicating that it owns the highest stability. Moreover, the stabilities of the four structures are enhanced enormously by the compressive strain larger than 2%. In addition, the band gaps of G&ndash
O2 and G&ndash
O2 exhibit direct and indirect transitions. Our work aims to control the graphene-based structure and electronic properties via strain engineering, which will provide implications for the application of new elastic semiconductor devices.
