Abstract

We investigated the energetic stability, electronic, and magnetic properties of hydrogenated graphene nanoflakes (GNFs) by using density-functional theory (DFT). Hydrogenated GNFs were found to be the stable heterojunction structures. As the increase of H coverage, a transition of a small-gap semiconductor to wide-gap semiconductor occurs, accompanied with a nonmagnetic (with the coverage χ=0) → magnetic (with the coverage 0
