The adsorption of an armchair single-walled carbon nanotube (CNT) on fully and partially hydrogenated Si(001) surfaces are studied from first-principles calculations. Our results indicate that the electronic properties of the adsorbed CNT can be ruled by the H concentration along the CNT–H∕Si(001) contact region. On t…
