Description
Summary:<div>The quantum modeling interaction properties</div><div>of fluorouracil radicals on the</div><div>single walled carbon nanotubes surface</div><div>is researched via MNDO/d calculations.</div><div>We have studied the effect of diameter,</div><div>length, position and rotational characteristics</div><div>of CNT on binding fluorouracil.</div><div>Our results suggest that the binding energy</div><div>is lower as the CNT diameter increases,</div><div>while as the CNT length increases</div><div>the binding energy initially increases and</div><div>then slightly increases.</div>
