CO2 adsorption over Co13−xCux (x = 0, 6, 13) nanoclusters supported on pyridinic N3-doped graphene: A density functional theory study

The aim of this study was to investigate CO2 adsorption on Co13−xCux/pyridinic N3-doped graphene (PNG). First, the magnetic, structural and energetic properties of the free-standing nanoclusters were analyzed, then the stability of the nanoclusters supported on PNG was studied. Finally, CO2 adsorption on the nanoclusters/PNG system was studied. The research was carried out with the use of density functional theory (DFT).
