First-principles study of O<sub>2</sub> and Cl<sub>2</sub> molecule adsorption on pristine doped boron nitride nanotubes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The adsorption of oxygen (O 2 ) and chlorine (Cl 2 ) on pristine and impurity X atom (X = C, Al, Si, Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu or Ge) doped (10,0) and (6,6) boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) has been theoretically studied using first-principles approach based on density functional theory. Comparing with the formation energy, the distance between gas molecule and X atoms, the Bader charge transfer, and the elevation of the dopant atom, we find that the O 2 or Cl 2 molecule undergoes weakly physical adsorption on the pristine (10,0) and (6,6) BNNTs, and the Al, Si, and Mn atoms are suitable dopants to modify BNNTs to enhance the reactivity of the tube to gas molecules. This work reveals that the sensitivity of BNNT-based chemical gas sensors for O 2 and Cl 2 can be drastically improved by introducing appropriate dopant, and Al-, Si-, and Mn-doped BNNTs can be used as O 2 and Cl 2 gas sensor manufacturing raw materials.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
