摘要
Various carbon-substituted boron nitride (8,0) and (4,4) nanotubes are designed for application as nonlinear optical materials. The structure and first (static and frequency-dependent) hyperpolarizabilities of these boron nitride nanotubes are predicted. The substitution of carbon in the boron nitride nanotube clip significantly enhances the first hyperpolarizabilities by up to several orders of magnitude. The doping pattern of the carbon circle and pi electron conjugation are crucial in determining the large first hyperpolarizabilities of these nanotubes.
