CO, CO2, and SO2 detection based on functionalized graphene nanoribbons: First principles study by Ehab, Salih

“…Before modification, the adsorption energies have been found to be −0.260, −0.145, and −0.196 eV due to the adsorption of CO, CO2, and SO2, respectively. After modification, the adsorption energy increased remarkably to −0.538 and −0.767 eV for the cases of AGNR-O-OH-CO2 and AGNR-O-OH-SO2, respectively. …”
