Density functional calculations have been performed to study the diffusion behavior of various alkali metal atoms on the surface of (AIN)(12) and (BN)(12) nanocages. Alkali metal doped nanocages possess remarkable nonlinear optical response. A number of studies in the literature discuss the structural, electronic, nonlinear and sensor applications of pure and doped X12Y12 nanocages. Alkali metal atom doping at different adsorption sites is reported; however, the information regarding the interconversion barriers for the diffusion of alkali metals on these structures is still unknown. In this study, the barriers for the diffusion of alkali metal atoms (Li, Na, K) on these nanocages are studied at omega B97XD method. The barriers are obtained by scanning potential energy surface along the movement of alkali metals through the nanocage. The barriers for the diffusion of lithium atom on AIN nanocage are found to be higher than BN nanocage. The highest interconversion barrier calculated is 48.77 kcal mol(-1) for b(66) to r(6) movement of lithium atom on AIN nanocage. The lowest migration barrier is observed for sodium movement from r(6) to b(66) in AIN nanocage. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
